1) I assume this is the facade thing again. I love ghostjmf to bits, but when she generally insulted the intelligence level of the Bored, I couldn't resist yanking her chain about how she spelled the word with which she was sure some of us would not be familiar.
I never insulted the intelligence level of the board. I assumed it was at least as high as mine, &, while as we all know "there are different sorts of intelligences", I had figured (wrongly, as it turned out) that "ignominious" was in most-people-here's vocabulary. When a bunch proclaimed it wasn't, I joked, sarcastically, I admit, in a post to a dog (dogs are only supposed to have 400 word vocabularies; for understanding, most of them
can't type, unlike AnnieC) that said pup probably knew what "facade" meant even if others reading the thread might not. (Of course, AnnieC's posts reveal a vocabulary well over that 400 word limit, so I was pretty sure she knew "facade".)
Then you chimed in with the French spelling requiring a diacritical (or whatever else they're called) marking that isn't available on my keyboard & that English spellers usually are relieved from seeking when spelling French words. As others pointed out at the time.
You can now all go back to whatever you
were doing.
(side note: Of course I kinda question the lovey thing, but had to leave it in so that the quoted portion would make sense, of a sort.)
