NES2 V - The Great Game.

[Lord_Iggy]

It's British/Canadian spellings, not American. So there's probably a difference.

 

[MjM]

Ahhh. So it is wrong.

 

[North King]

No, British spellings are right. American spellings are crap.

PLOUGH!
FAVOURITE!
ARMOUR!
JOLLY GOOD TIME FOR A CUP OF TEA!

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Ahhh. So it is wrong.

In American English, possibly. I only have a British/Canadian English dictionary.

Now, lets cut the spam.

 

[MjM]

American spellings are much more realistic, and represnt what the word actualyl sounds like.

CO-LOR

AR-MOR

FAV-OR-ITE

(note: not sylabbles, just hyphened for uhh, clarity

 

[Thlayli]

Das, the Federate trade center in Afghanistan is Herat, or Kandahar?

 

[MjM]

Oh and while we bicker, send your orders for my NES Iggy. Update tonight if you do!

 

[Insane_Panda]

You know who started the whole new american spelling thing? Theodore Roosevelt. He was kickass.

 

[North King]

Wrong. I believe it was Webster, but I could be wrong; in any case, it was much earlier than TR.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

I'll send orders and write a story too MjM. Just let me finish LINES awards.

 

[MjM]

Awesome. Ill do your part last then.

More like lazy.. Heheh

Come on, colour looks way nicer than color. And color is harder to type on a keyboard. Colour flows so much better.

 

[Thlayli]

But to a foreigner, they'll pronounce it Coh-loor.

 

[BananaLee]

I'm probably as foreign as one can get, and I'm sure I know the pronunciation very well, good sir

EDIT: Of course, if you really want to spell everything according to pronunciation, you'd write it as Culler or Kahler..

Italy wont go the way of Umberto because I decided to switch to the FK, at least it shouldnt.

Just because Carlo WAS a French puppet doesnt mean the Italians necessarily loved France. If the FK is supporting the destruction of an Empire that the Italians seek revenge on for taking Venice away and getting us while we were weak, then I would think the people would want Carlo to support the FK and go away from France.

Italy is in the FK's arena and if I get a revolution, das better have a damn good reason...which Im sure he would, but still

 

[Thlayli]

Isn't it pronounced Culler? It's certainly not Cullor.

By foreigner, I meant non-English speaking.

Hmm, if you say so.

Although Carlo randomly switching allegiances to gain Venice back won't go over well with anyone, it's your choice.

 

[Azale]

Well, its not random. I had every intention of staying with France, but them not telling me about the HRE's plans and thiers kinda put me in an awkward position.

That's what I said, "Culler" or "Kahler". So in the end, both the Queen's spelling and the American spelling is.. well.. wrong. Haha

And I'm a first generation immigrant into an English-speaking country. THree guesses where I come from
