Also the word "weird"....
thats because you havent said the whole thing
its I before E except after C when it sounds like E
hence my name Greig (pronounced Greg,and its NOT Grieg!!!!!)
so CEIling is an I after an E after C as it sounds like E

Here my fucking biggest hate on this subject.

Ford Ka.

It's pronounced 'car' as that's what it is, spelt differently as it was Ford's declaration that they had made a car that was different to anything else, therefore giving it a different spelling too. It's not a fucking Ford K-A.

You don't tell people that you drive a Ford F-I-E-S-T-A, do you?

The one that gets my goat by far the most is:

Compliment and complement.

So few people know the difference it's scary.....

Only if you were looking at a Jew boy and pointing at him and felling your mate to look at him as well. As in "There Is" being shortened.
