That's obviously very leading. One doesn't have to assume anything. But I think pretty meta. --- Quote from: saint on October 26, 2009, 05:44:14 pm --- --- Quote from: Ummon on October 26, 2009, 03:07:11 pm --- No. Technically, I'm correct. 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'. --- End quote --- No, you're not. --- End quote --- Pattie-cake, huh? --- Quote from: FrizzleFried on October 26, 2009, 03:53:11 pm --- --- 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? --- End quote --- Although I might easily present a default of 'no', cos I covered that kind of thing in my first post on the subject ('error in mentation'), I'm curious where you're referring to? --- Quote ---I find that misspellings are much less irritating as the reader than when people misuse AD/ADD, TO/TOO, THERE/THEIR/THEY'RE, etc... --- End quote --- Yeah, like this: wondering where your located? or stuff like this: built in that match's --- Quote from: BamBam on October 28, 2009, 08:26:23 am ---Can we take a vote to change the name of this site to "Bring Your Own Dictionary"? ;) We are wasting precious pixels on non-arcade issues :-\ --- End quote --- Don't you know we're in an age of near-limitless resources. And it will become even more so. Besides, this is fun. <toothy, yet offset, smile - with a side-long glance and raised eyebrow> |
