obviously the common usage of that word has changed, and would probably be closest to exclaimed, and also Doyle does use that in the same manner every so often -- just shows you how much language changes in 200 years
1) I know what the word means.
2) It has only been 118 years.
3) Way to ruin an amazing quote.
By following the series, the readers would know that he was also a cocaine and morphine user but back in those days, these drugs were not yet illegal. Cocaine was just newly introduced back then and it was used in ports and Sherries, wines and such because it was thought to be perfectly harmful
sorry I just copy-pasted this from my research paper

Who watched Sherlock Holmes (Movie) already?
Me, to be honest it wasn´t as bad as I thought it would be, for me it was good to watch.
In my opinion the woman that acted as Irene Adler was the best.
I´ll stop commenting if a spoiler suddenly comes up and I don´t realise it.
Thanks. I'm definitely gonna watch it. I'm gathering opinions 'coz I don't wanna watch any loser movies anymore. But I guess the movie isn't bad. And it received good ratings in Rotten Tomatoes.
The begining was a little bit of a dissapiontment I didnt like the begining with all the magic, sometimes I like magic movies but that was gust to much for my taste and most sherlock storys that have magic in it he always proves it flase (which is cool I think).
As the story progressed It got much beter and you could tell homes was solveing the case.
and at the ending of the movie I loved it
In my opinion the woman that acted as Irene Adler was the best.
