While we're going off on bad spelling (for people whose primary language is English)

The word 'definitely' comes from the word 'finite'...not 'fanate'....:-lol

Now tell that to everyone under 25...

I'm under 25. Lets see "definitely". I will try to remember that. As for me my spelling has always been bad and I'm always working to make it better. So thanks for the tip Erick.

I think it is the result of "l337"-conversations on pagers, etc. that really kills off communication and spelling. Thankfully, those of us geriatric cases whose lives still require writing, and whose existence predates the spell-checker (and in some cases, the electric typewriter) tend to be better for it.

LAST EDITED ON May-29-02 AT 10:34AM (EDT)[p]It would only take a small effort for those who know not to be very proficient at spelling to use a spell-checker regularly before posting a message or a letter.

Eye halve a spelling chequer,it came with my pea sea. It plainly marques four my revue miss steaks eye kin knot sea. Eye strike a key and type a word and weight four it two say weather eye am wrong oar write. It shows me strait a weigh. As soon as a mist ache is maid, it nose bee fore two long and eye can put the error rite. Its rarely ever wrong.

Whether they care or not is a matter of how sensitive they were made (my knuckles still hurt at the thought) to the issue of proper presentation. Those among us who are on the wong side of fifties know what I mean.

I defanately agree.

In fact, the most defanately weird thing happened to me the other day.

I defenately spotted a man who was defenately a former aquaintance of mine. I said to him, "Don't I defanately know you???"

He replied, "Defenately."

Omygoodness... I just remembered, definately comes from definate which is a reverse-formation of definition. That has nothing to do with finite. Sorry to spoil yet another party with my highly academic background.

Well, I guess not everybody - I speak English ( and only English ) & never heard of it. I guess I've lived a sheltered life :)

Thanks for the clarification
