"Latter/ladder number of failed therapy" - brainblock


Posted: May 01, 2014

I'm embarassingly stuck on the sound-alike ladder vs latter. I know the difference, the ladder being the physical structure used for cilmbing, and latter being positional in a sentence, the second option of two things, the end half, etc (much like how I used it for this sentence).  However, I find myself second guessing which one to use as neither really made any sense to me. The doctor says repeatedly,"She has failed a [ladder/latter] number of therapy." My gut is saying latter, but I don't know. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you. 

Nevermind, after coming back to it, I think I figured it out - OP

Now it sounds like 'failed the latter of nonoperative therapy.'
