Can you tell I've been doing this lately?

Poll Spelling

Also, I feel the need to complain about how other people spell this word. It bothers me.

Last month, Susanne got a paper from one of her students describing, "hideous corpus." Hoo boy.

Whine whine whine

[enigmakat]

Whinge is a UK variant (though they pronounce the G, which sounds weird), wine is something you drink, and winge is not even a word!

[wolfknuckles]

either of the first two would be fine. australians would say either whine or whinge.

[ariellabella]

if you say you prefer whinge i am going to have to judge you.

[ninabeans]

No, I say whine. But I have been seeing non-brits say whinge and winge. Wine I threw in there just to have a fourth answer.
