About "de facto" and " de jure " What's the difference between " de facto " and " actually " ? How about " in reality" or " in fact " ? And the word " de jure ", what's the difference between " de facto " and " de jure " ? Are they French or Latin word? Totally have no clue about the situation they should be used properly. The original use: " Composite Applications are becoming the de facto programming model in the industry both in IT and consumer oriented applications. " Thx
