    Well aside, I love indications that someone has never seen a word in writing. The visual equivalent of a bizarre pronunciation. English is full of these opportunities because it’s a creole gone feral. Occasionally you get it both ways, where people never connect appetizers called “ordervs” to a menu section titled “hors d’oeuvre.”
