whence

Archaic adverb meaning "from where" or "from what source." Anyone who uses this term seriously is either affected or was born two hundred years ago.

Saying "from whence" is redundant, as "whence," on its own, already means "from where." Anyone who says "from whence" is an arrogant moron.

A: Whence did you come this fine morning?
B: The cherry orchard is whence I came.
A: Splendid!
B: Indubitably!

whence

A broader use of the word whence meaning when and where. In some instances it is useful to use the word ‘from’ with whence as sentence structure and meaning can be awkward without it.

Recent use by others notwithstanding, Shakespeare and J. R. R. Tolkien are two writers of note who used “from whence” in their writing.

The project was in jeopardy, on and off, but surely from whence it began.

from whence 

If you use this, you are a dick. See whence.

Bill: "Take that wrench back from whence you got it little man!"

Scott: "Quit trying to sound intelligent you dwanker; it is simple 'whence.' There is no need to use the word 'from' with 'whence'; it is built into the word...so to speak.

you shall be taken to the place from whence you came, and from there be taken to a place of execution 

"You shall be taken to the place from whence you came, and from there be taken to a place of execution. You shall be hung by the neck until the body be dead... dead... DEAD!"


When British judges gave the death penalty (unfortunately, it was discontinued, which is a shame), they would put on a black cap, and, in a solemn voice say this sentence to the criminal, bringing down the hammer each time the word "dead" was uttered.

I wish someone would bring back the death penalty.

So whenever you ask me again how i feel please remember my answer is you 

“so whenever you ask me again how i feel please remember my answer is you” TRY AGAIN by JAEHYUN and D.ear. This song is about love and this part is basically a way to say that they feel warm or comfort when they’re around “you” and that’s why when it says “you” at the end it’s bc you make them happy and “you” are what comes to their mind
