To think that chester draws isn't as bad as

'chester freezer'

I'm not defending chester draws, but at least I can understand how it happened.

I've just seen someone talk about their 'chester freezer' on Facebook. There's no excuse.

I've seen more than one otter man bed listed on various sites. I'm not sure why an otter man needs a special sort of bed.

I've also seen bike peddles listed.

When granddaughter had been on an outdoor pursuits weekend she talked about kayaking and I asked if they had worn life jackets. No, apparently they had a Beyonce aid.

I follow someone on instagram who writes (and says in her stories)

Wallah (said with a flourish) when she means Voila

Not being a music fan it was a while until I realised that a member of a group I heard as 'in excess' was actually in INXS which I would have said as Inks!

Now I'm wondering if I've been pronouncing Voilà wrong my entire life. I say it with a V at the beginning so couldn't spell it Wallah because that wouldn't make sense. Should it be a W at the beginning?

[lazylinguist]

The v is softer than a v at the beginning of an English word, to the point that it's often barely noticeable.

On a forum I frequent I see alot a lot!

[lazylinguist]

And it's the 'oi' that makes the 'wah' sound.

[SirGawain]

The one that irritates me the most is: "Off my own back".
it hpould be: "Off my own bat".

@lazylinguist

Oh yes it's a softer v. (I'm sitting in my lounge saying Voilà and making v sounds much to ds2 amusement). But it is a v?

I find it hard to read these threads because it makes me actually forget what the correct versions are.

Because of general bad spelling and grammar out there, I am not unsure which one of these is correct:

Hear hear or here here

Can someone please clarify.

[Naticus]

Carnt instead of can't, actually making the word longer than it needs to be 😒

[SirGawain]

Sorry should be. Hoisted on my own petard.

[SirGawain]

Pacific instead of specific.

[DeeTractor]

People who type things like "discusting", "gorgiss", and my absolute favourite "carnt" don't fucking deserve rights.

Had someone on FB describe her new hair cut as "so fisticated"

[Ibake]

@hamstersarse it's hear hear and it's short for hear him hear him.
