Actually, since a language is a constantly evolving form of concept exchange, there really is no way to mispell a word, only to evolve it into something else. Adter all, we don't use "thee's" and "thou's" as forms of address anymore.

Unless you read the Bible... which a few of us out there still do.

You do realize that is a book reputed to be several thousand years old, right? And Ihave to say that I have never heard anyone outside of a ren fest or shakspear play using "thee" and "thou" in general conversation.

Thee and thou used to be the informal way of addressing someone.  It's how you would've spoken to your mother of close friend, whereas if you were talking to, say, the mayor, you would address him as 'you.'

Stick around for a while, chummer, and you'll see that English isn't exactly the predominent language typed on this board. ;) Besides, you haven't met Mercy yet. He can do things with a keyboard that would make H. P, Lovecraft shudder. :mercy:

Well, not like we're much better. This is a case of the pots calling the kettles black, because I don't think there's a one of us that ROOTless hasn't corrected on some sort of grammatical or spelling error. And English isn't even his first language!

You do realize that we haven't called attention to HIS mispellings and gramatical errors, though, right?

Silver Surfer was originally the herald of Galactus, the world eater.
he went around and found planets for Galactus to consume. He eventually turned on Galactus and helped the FF defeat him to save the earth

rough short version anyway

Okay, so who is Galactus when he's at home?
