Got myself in trouble on the DIS Facebook page

pointing out the ever popular dinning vs. dining spelling debate!

 

[aballerina]

I'm always amazed at how many people misspell that word.

That was you? Don't you know that is the "European" spelling.

 

[Kaytie]

In trouble how? Did somebody "politely remind" you not to be grammar police?

 

[ImDMous]

Hehe, that does really bug me.

 

[karmic]

Grammar and spelling are 2 different things.
Got called some pretty bad things including swears.
I usually do not post things but I have seen the dinning/dining complaint on these boards forever.

 

[SaintsManiac]

It drives me insane. Don’t people want to spell correctly???

 

[Floridaman999]

It's a mute point.

 

[Searc]

Thank you. It needed to be said.

 

[Disneylover99]

Speak up. I can’t here you.

Did they loose their minds?

 

[WDWBarb]

Their wrong, your right.



ETA .. it was oddly painful to type that.

I didn't even know there was a Dis facebook page but I just went and looked. They may have deleted your specific comments. But I love how people are calling it a typo/autocorrect. First, an autocorrect would, you know, CORRECT it. Not spell it incorrectly. Second, it's not a typo if approximately 60% of people do it.

Yes, I am a professor at Harvard and I hate bad grammar and spelling

One must be very careful around here.
Pointing out someones error, no matter how wrong they are, can get you attacked by their entire flock.

THIS drives me bonkers! I see it so often, it really makes me wonder if I'M the one who is wrong.

Or maybe it's the Amish spelling.



Need any work done on the exterior of your house?

 

[jdb in AZ]

I always spell gooder than most people. It's something I just take for granite.

 

[MSPeeler]

This thread is cracking me up... keep ‘em comin’

Maybe the Amish make a lot of noise when they eat.
From Websters;
Dinning
making loud, confused, and usually unharmonious sounds

• dinning honks and beeps arose from cars stuck in the massive traffic jam
