you know, as opposed to all the other ones that definitely are.

    garuntees

    not trying to be a dick, but you’ve spelled it twice like that now - it’s “guarantee”. Yes, I hate the English language too; though in our defense it’s a word we stole from the French. And I’ll never turn down an opportunity to blame the French, so neither should you.

      If it makes it any better I tend to write phonetically which means that guarantee sounds gar-untee, which is why random ass words in my phones autocorrect are just mangled for no reason. I will continue to mangle random words to fit my dialect and none of you fuckers can stop me. Fun fact continue would spelt cuntinue in my dialect so I could be so much worse.

      Also I concur fuck the French and their backwards ass spelling.

        fair, I just can’t tell what is merely personal preference and what is “I’ve not seen this word used often enough to know better”, lots of non-native speakers have taught me never to assume. In my case, one I use a lot out of preference is “yanno” instead of “ya know/you know?”

          Ya I get it. We all have dialect quirks and frankly I’m just particularly uncaring towards how I spell things. Like I said my dialect inverts certain noises due to its more guttural lean, I blame my German ancestors.
