The Troll of Languages WHlSKY: I nominate the English Language. This is the conflict: The business of life. My eyes kept going over the word ‘business’ and thinking to myself, no, that’s not right, that’s the spelling for business as in a company… My mind says ‘busy’, you’ve to drop the y and add -i + the word ending. Example busily. Logic. My ears say that shit doesn’t sound right ‘-ee-ness’ vs ‘-in-ess’ Took 5 minutes for my memory to kick in and remember it’s spelt ‘busyness’. The busyness of life. | Off Topic Chat Room Similar Conversations |
