FEND
(I'm quite ashamed of the spelling mistake. I really meant to write feud, but I was also thinking that if I had feel I could have responded with fuel. Anyway it was about two hours past midnight here when I made that mistake, and now it's two hours past midnight here and I hope I got the spelling right this time. I really should not be playing games so late at night.) |

I often check my post in a dictionary just to be sure I haven't made a similar error. Adding to the confusion is that "FUEL" and "FEUD" could start with the same slurred "FU" or "FEU" sound. Compare to the sounds in "FE" and "FOOD". Combine with differences in spelling and pronunciation of many English words across different parts of the world, and in the US even different cities in some cases. I initially was going to follow with "FUEL" because I didn't realize your spelling was reversed. My feeling is that we should just laugh and hope that we don't make mistakes with a serious negative effect (such as driving errors or missing a step and tripping) this week.

I actually had the word "feud" open in a dictionary in a separate tab when I was posting it, and I still spelt it incorrectly. Strange are the ways of the human mind! |
