Show your Windstone Collection-Continued

[Elena]

Canadians spell things kind weird, sometimes it’s the British spelling, sometimes the American. Supposedly on all our school papers and stuff it should be the British way but alot of instructors let the american way go too

Examples
Check vs Cheque
Mom vs Mum
Color vs Colour

But all those will be accepted as accuate on a spelling test or your school paper

I got the first rubies to come out, the flash really lightened them up. Some of them are almost black cherry colored.

Yep, I like your collection. What is the little griffin from in the first pic by the Flion?

[wolflodge100]

Haha, cute isn’t he? I got him at the ren faire about 5 years ago. I’ve never seen one since 😆

I have that little griffin-thing too. I got it at a gift shop in town. Right now it’s packed away with some other stuff, but I recognized it in your photo. I just forgot to mention it. I was too awestruck by the Birman Flap Cat and all the Ruby. 🙂

ah ha ha ha haaaaa! you spelled “spelled” wrong too! spelled as opposed to spelt! lol! silly! nice pieces griffiness, that empea is snazzy! of course the ruby is awesome too- love those rubies!

lol, i didn’t notice that thanks tf! 🙄 I havent got a clue what you are talking about but never mind 😕
I’ll try not to spell anything wrong again or i’ll have you on my tail lol! Those colours on wolflodges collection look so bright and yummie!

Gimmie 😯

Thank you for posting the pictures, i love to see them all together 😀

I think it’s the British spelling as opposed to the American spelling. We don’t spell color with a “u” either, but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

awwwwww i’m sorry griffiness! you’re sweeeeeet i wouldn’t pick on you meanly!!!! i was just teasing as it looked funny in that particular context!!!! i’m sorry! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! i’m sorry!!!!!
yes, i wouldn’t be surprised if that was the euro version of it…i am well aware of the words like check and color, etc. and their different spellings, very interesting. in general i mis-spell stuff on here all the time myself- i am a little dyslexic and have tendonitis so i always surprise myself with some of the stuff i type up!! lol! 😯 you don’t want to see my unedited posts! they are train wrecks, lol! hence i find it funny if someone else biffs up because i think to myself: hey thats me all the way! lol!
ohhhhhhhhhh my dad is the cake taker as he repeatedly mis-spells his name in his emails to me! now that is funny, and just plain weird, though i know its just him speed typing messily.

Yep he is really cute.

[dragonmedley]

The spelled spelled spelt (figure that one out) was funny to me because spelt is a type of grain too 😀

I think thats quite right, you shouldn’t be forced to spell English the way us English people spell it especially if you have been brought up without the ‘u’ it all means the same thing.
I didn’t know about the cheque one, its very interesting thanks fox! 😀

When i was in New York the people in the Apple Mac shop were trying to make me talk because of my accent 🙄

[Tiffany]

mmmmmmmm the british accent on guys is hot! mmwarrrr! lol! oooooooh and the aussie accent on the ladies!!!! so darn cute! i love it! LOVE IT! my boyfriend and i had an aussie lady friend in a chat room back in the day and we always had her talk on the mike because she was so cool to listen to! she found his accent amusing as well- rhode islandah- ( gahlic, cah, buttah, idea-r, amanda-r..yuk!) so it was a mutual thing. she thought he sounded like some mafia tough guy sweet talker! hoo boy! 🙄

[Griffiness]

😆 ha ha lol thats just so funny!

As far as i think its everyone else who talks funny 😆 but then i would think that wouldn’t i!

[Jodi]

My husband’s half-sister grew up in England and while she was visiting us she heard me say Stuart (her now ex-husband’s name). She thought it was the funniest thing and made me say it over and over. In MN we say it like stew-ert and she says it like styu-wart. Funny! 🙂

[Alyssa]

I think it is also funny to hear a accent, but it is also cool.
