Yours is a colloquial use that has been absorbed into common use, and of course even dictionaries are subject to cultural amendment. --- Quote from: saint on October 23, 2009, 06:54:19 pm --- --- Quote from: Ummon on October 23, 2009, 04:18:56 pm ---Typos are not mis-spellings. --- End quote --- Yes, yes, they are. --- End quote --- In only the grossest manner. In a specific sense, I'm setting a precedent of 'no'. |

--- Quote from: Ummon on October 23, 2009, 04:18:56 pm ---. Mis-spellings of the kind I intimated are due to naivete/ignorance (though don't mistake that I'm implying 'stupidity'). --- End quote --- You mean using the word AD as in ADVERTISEMENT instead of the word ADD as in ADDITION wasn't done due to naivete/ignorance on your part? I find that misspellings are much less irritating as the reader than when people misuse AD/ADD, TO/TOO, THERE/THEIR/THEY'RE, etc... |
