I almost always spell weird wrong. Not sure why. I know how it's spelled. And for some strange reason I felt like spelling nazis that way. I was going to spell it "natzies" first but I at least took the "t" out. And it's LEGOS. :p

The most slaughtered plural word in the English language is datum. Yes, data is singular and datum is plural. Good luck finding anyone who gives a damn anymore besides me and possibly gbk.


No! Other way round! Datum singular! Data plural! :)

The only person I grew up with that ever called the bricks "legos" was this handicapped kid I knew, everyone else called 'em LEGO.

The Aluminium / Aluminum debate is actually not a case of there being a PROPER way to spell / say it. Actually both are correct: It was originally called alumium, then changed to Aluminum, but it messed with the way chemists suffixed elements with -ium so it was changed by some (but not all) to aluminium.

As it happens, it just tended to be the US that stuck with Aluminum, and the ROW that went for Aluminium. ;)

But yeah, both are correct, but one more than the other.

And it's Lego. <.<

(and ROW = Rest of World)

Here in Québec it's aluminium. At least it is for the French. I should know, I worked in an aluminium plant. :p

And it's LEGO. The only people that I've heard that say "LEGOs" are those damn Newfies. They put an "s" at the end of every word they say.
