| | | How do you spell Sophomore?
I'm the last person in the world who should be criticizing bad spelling, but I've been silent about this for too long... 
Has anybody else noticed that the word "sophomore" is spelled wrong on the classification under a user's name? It's missing the second "o." As in "puritanboard sophmore"

Come on guys, this is an internet forum - we are allowed to type faster than the speed of thought on occasion. We are also wrestling with the most awkward language on the face of the earth. I mean, I just typed 'wrestling' and 'earth' and 'typed'. The w, t, a and y were all superfluous. What do you want, good spelling or good doctrine?
Don't even get me started on the homonyms that we hear here. Accept them all except the mispelled? Will it effect the same effect if it doesn't affect the argument? Let me advise you some advice - it's its own problem. Ugh! I get a rash between my shoulders just trying to keep these things straight.... or is it strait. Dang!
We could start a new forum on commonly mispelled words and grammar tips.
Respectfully submitted,
Bob Vigneault (Veen-yo)

(2) Thanks for the pronounciation tip (I was saying vin-oh') and
(3) That last remark was rather sophomoric! |

Most internet forums are notorious for bad grammer and mispelled or mistyped words. The puritan board is usually like an oasis in the middle of a vast, barren grammar wasteland.

I also knew that you were the only word-geek that would know that buddy. Furthermore, I believe you are referencing an obscure Alexandrian text wheras I was quoting a late Byzantine work - apples and orages man. :bigsmile:

When in doubt, use the same word twice and spell it differently each time. Quote:
