ORIGINAL: usememistress775 Other side of the ponders have strange spelling habits anyways. They invented the language and just think they can spell things however they like. Extra vowels every which where. It's enough to drive one mad. No, we didn't "add" extra vowels, it's how it originated from the original Latin or Greek. It's you lot that didn't know how to spell stuff right so you dropped them off the words! And to be honest, nothing that Russia does surprises me either. I'm sorry we prefer logical, rational spelling that tends towards dropping letters that aren't there when you say the words. Also you just stole the words from another language, have some dignity and hide that fact. And YOU lot didn't steal OUR language and thoroughly bastardize it to the point that it is barely recognizable????? Your forefathers stole our constitution and did the same to that too. Logical?? What you mean is.... you can't spell. So you write stuff that looks right and declare it the right way to spell it. And given what I've seen posted on these boards, a lot of you don't know the difference on where to use the correct words! Then you have 'gas' and 'gas' when it refers to two completely different things - we have different words for those. You still measure stuff in cups when we've evolved to use standard measures. And you say we're confusing?? Pfffttttt!!! ETA: Then you invent a ball game, much like our rugby, and have the audacity to call it football?? What's more, you pad the players up like namby-pamby sissies so the poor darlings can't get hurt much. We already had a ball game called football, where strangely enough, the ball is controlled with.... um, the foot!! Your football is running with it in your arms! Where's the logic in that??
