Forget that.
I was happily typing in the title, and I came to the word "Dilemna", and the word check said that it was misspelled. As a fairly snobby speller, I feel cheated. I have gone my whole life (well at least since I was, you know, three and spelling words like this one...) with a misconception about the spelling of this word, and according to a google search of "Dilemna" I'm not the only one.
How do YOU spell dilemma? When did the spelling change?
Am I crazy?
Dilemma's always been spelled that way where I'm from, but if it makes you feel better I can't spell "accidentally." Well, I did it correctly there, but I cheated. I'll invariably go through "accidentily" and "accidentaly" before realizing that I've once again been thwarted by my kryptonite of suffixes, "-ally."
ReplyDeleteThe English language is composed entirely of dicks, as far as I'm concerned.

ReplyDeleteYou are apparently not alone, and I can say that I believe I have seen it as "dilemna" before.
