I dunno. That's obviously very leading. One doesn't have to assume anything. But I think pretty meta.

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.

Yes, yes, they are.

In only the grossest manner. In a specific sense, I'm setting a precedent of 'no'.

No, you're not.

--- 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').

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...

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>

I believe you meant "and" in the sentence above, and no, I don't believe I will.
