Oh sweet irony.
I think 'anecdotally' and 'from my experience' are completely interchangeable. As in they mean the same thing, a nice little story told from someone's own experience.
Jimmy_Fingers-
Yes. They are interchangeable.
Although, when asked why such a tent over upside down headsets the response was 'from my experience' ie 'what I found when I tried' soon become 'anecdotal' or 'I do it cos I was told to, dunno if its true'
Sall about that context.
Of course, Im just being a facetious prick and coulda just allowed it really.
.mo.
Lrn 2 anglais bro.
You said in your experience, ie you have done it
In that context it can't be anecdotal unless you are talking wet.
What you mean is 'its purely recollection (or speculation, in your case)
Your own definition even states other peoples stories is an anecdote, not your memory of an event is an anecdote (it would be an anecdote tho, if you starting telling people about that event.)
