My favorite is: definately -- for some reason that sticks in my craw. People, please, spell it right: definitely Many thanks. Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: Supernatural Pie on January 25, 2004, 05:27:21 pm My favorite is: definately -- for some reason that sticks in my craw. People, please, spell it right: definitely Not to brag, but I believe that I am one of the better spellers on this forum, but I will admit to "definitely" being my achilles foot. Without thinking about it, I'll spell it with an "a," but if I think about it, the root is "definite," which I know how to spell. I don't know why I spell "definitely" with an "a." It's just one of those few words that really get me. Another word is "separate." I know it's spelled "separate," but for years I thought it was "seperate." Finally, one that always got me: "genius" I even once falsely corrected someone that wrote it as "genius," telling them it was "genious." Didn't I feel like an ass. ;) *** After looking back at the list, it made me feel good to find that separate and definitely were both on there. ...no genius though... *** After looking back to the "150 more," I found genius!!! yay!

Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: kami on January 25, 2004, 08:40:09 pm Snipe, it's Achilles heel, not foot.
Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: kami on January 25, 2004, 08:43:31 pm The only words I couldn't spell on that list were the ones I'd never heard of, bellwether...?
Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: Supernatural Pie on January 26, 2004, 12:14:44 am Snipe, it's Achilles heel, not foot. Oh god, I'm sooooo sorry. You're just being more specific than I intended. And I know it's heel. Why didn't I say heel? Because I didn't feel like it. Is that huge deal? Pfft. Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: BFG on January 26, 2004, 12:38:30 am Colour... the americans seem to believe that its color... but they're just being lazy.
Its Colour... almost as annoying as people who say things like 'leasure' or 'rout' when you mean leisure or route ;) and i won't even mention tomatoes Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: Mr. Lothario on January 26, 2004, 12:41:37 am Ah, stuff it in the boot of your lorry.
Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: kami on January 26, 2004, 12:41:38 am Well snipe, if you'd have told the enemies of achilles that his foot was his weak point, and not his heel, he probably would've survived since no one would have thought about attacking his heel.
Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: Supernatural Pie on January 26, 2004, 01:40:02 am Well what retard told them that his heel was his weak point? I hope he was fired.
Anyway, we're getting (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~damnr6/yabbse/YaBBImages/offtopic.gif) But thanks for the correction anyway. ;) Title: Re:A special gift for you Post by: Noto on January 26, 2004, 05:19:18 am Colour... the americans seem to believe that its color... but they're just being lazy.
