It is an imminent fact that we must vote for those who give us security!
Well, if you don't have an urn on your side, it's better not to say this phrase or the like using “imminent”, wanting to connote importance to something. For this word suggests that something is about to happen.
The right one is the paronym of this one: eminent. Remember that paronyms are terms that have proximity in written form and different meanings.
Eminent that is to say remarkable, illustrious, tall, elevated.
Imminent, as said before, expresses something that will happen soon.
Therefore, it is a remarkable or eminent fact that we must vote for the one who gives us security!
See other examples:
The) João was an eminent figure in his neighborhood, as he was a full-fledged cook!
B) The building had to be interdicted as there was imminent danger.
ç) The risk of the parliamentarian being arrested and impeached is imminent.
d) They were called to assume more eminent posts, because they gave their best!
Do not stop now... There's more after the advertising ;)
