Hi folks,

I'm sure that preen should use the en sign and preedit the ed sign. But according to the dictionary there's a word, both a noun and verb, in north England and Scotland: "to pree." It means to test or sample. Thus, "Yesterday I preed that new cereal." Is this proper usage and shouldn't it use the ed sign too?

Have fun,
