:: Why can't you guys put threads like this in the hall of shame? There should be an extensive collection there already from I and I. This is a classic.
Once this thread has died, it will go in there. But if i put it in there right now, all of the new stuff that gets posted wont show up.
Click on the second option of the word and it clearly states it's relation to the word "spell." You're getting owned by your own links now, asshole! :laughing:

You thought I'd take a five-hour test over an unsecured $30 bet? Explain to me why I should have. Anyway, I'll probably take the GRE later this year or early next year, if anyone's interested.
Team england or team america???? only dumbfucks like you guys would now try to say that these kids were smart and were really only trying to use the brittish version of it's usage. American kids are stupid, can't spell, and I point this out, then you guys try to find how the word is use in................ENGLAND, and then try to imply that the kids weren't really that stupid. :laughing: Total dumbfucks.
Liberation Trplsec So when americans are stupid and can't spell, that means I get owned???? You guys are the ones who have to pretend that american kids were really using the the brittish usage of the word and wern't spelling or getting any part of the usage of the word wrong.
No, you get owned because you slam Americans for not being able to spell and one sentence earlier you use this gem: And again, from an American, Websters dictionary: :: :: :laughing: :laughing: :nono:
What makes those students part of Team America anyway? Because they're Americans? I guess that makes InI part of Team America too. TFK
SPELT is not taught or used or even considered a correct use of any word in the american education system. If I was in a school in England and I made this forum, then you guys would have a point, because in england that can be considered a correct spelling of a form of spelled. BUT I WAS IN AN AMERICAN SCHOOL, WITH KIDS TAUGHT IN THE AMERICAN EDUCATION SYSTEM, WHERE SPELT IS NOT CONSIDERED OR TAUGHT TO BE A CORRECT SPELLING OF ANY FORM OF WORD OR EVEN A WORD FOR THAT MATTER.
The Dictionary say it IS a WORD....is use in the ENGLISH language....SPELT is a word..can be use...here, canada,uk...anywhere in the world...
It isn't considered correct in america. Which is why in american dictionaries it specifies that SPELT is used in england, and american dictionaries online, when SPELT is put in the search engine, the first thing that comes up is a german word.::
So you believe that those kids were prodigies of the english lexicon and were having a serious debate on the progression of the english language from England to the United states. WHAT A FUCKIN JOKE to imply this.
They were not incorrect. And who implied anything? You need to quit making things up. I don't believe that the kids were prodigies. I believe that you made another thread without knowing what you are talking about.
That's what you say TODAY! Yesterday you said "spelt" was simply the pronunciation key of the word "spelled." ::
yeah i and i...yesterday it wasn't a word..or the correct spelling...today the american kids are dumb cause it's use in the ENGLISH language but not in usa........ shut up I and I...:: TWIST AND TURN...
Coming from the guy who says that people that read don't have a life, and that a blackbox can be smashed to pieces with a baseball bat, and that we didn't bomb any cities in North Vietnam, and that materican can be injected away from an explosion. I really feel bad about being attacked personally be somone like that.:laughing:
