Yes, its emphasis. But its more than just "this is the end of this sentence". It means for example, forever: "We are finished, period"... or,  with no doubt: "He was crazy, period". \n\nIn other words, it puts a closing not only to the sentence but to what it is saying (the content).

I believe it is the equivalent of a centimeter. Yes, I have heard the term before, too, although I am not sure of the correct spelling.  I have heard it used if reference to the number of centimeters a woman has dilated in preparation for giving birth.\n\nEdit: It is NOT a mispronounciation...this is a term used by OBGYNs.

This may be more information than you want.  I'll apologize in advance.  \n\nAs two words, the context tends to be, "The blood stained the carpet."  noun/verb.\n\nThe other two seem to most people to be interchangable.  Here's the detail part.  When compund words enter the language, they typically begin as a hyphenated word.  As they become more common, the hyphen drops out, thus creating a true compound.  Therefore, after a certain period of time, the hyphenated version will become obsolete.\n\nAs a side note, you might want to check different dictionaries.  Webster's tends to be more prescriptive, meaning it attempts to influence our language and usage.  America Heritage tends to be more descriptive -- just telling what it is we do with the language.  \n\nAgain, I apologize if that was more than what you wanted to know.

I know when we used it while I was in the Marines, it meant "fast."\nAs in, "Get that done ricky tick!"  Its got to do with the story of Ricky Ticky Tavy, and how he was so fast a cobra couldn't catch him.

An amusing semantic prank... It's right up there with "Doctors practice medicine until they get it right, then they retire."\n\nYou're actually confounding two distinctly different meanings of the word practice: one, repeating until something is learned and gotten right (which is how you are using the word), and the other, applying an art or science that has been mastered (the meaning of the word when you speak of a physician or a lawyer practicing their trade).  Thus, in the intended meaning of the word, talking about a physician practicing, we stop practicing when we retire.  In the sense you're misunderstanding the phrase to mean, we usually are accorded as doing it for real when we graduate from our residency and begin applying our knowledge in the real world.\n\nGrin--as I said, an interesting play on the word "practice"  here...
