And "debt" should be spelled "det". It should. It isn't. You can start writing det everywhere now, and maybe in a generation you will have collected enough mindshare that the Oxford Dictionary contains it as an alternative spelling. Your grandchildren will thank you for a simplified language, but your children will fight with the fact that debt is now called det. Been there, done that. Delphin is now spelled Delfin in German. For - what - 20 years now? It still looks wrong. Oh, and the public outcry back then. And the economic damage caused by having to re-proofread, re-edit and re-print a ton of Flipper books... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_orthography_reform_of_1996 Thanks, Marc -- Marc Mutz <[email protected]> | Senior Software Engineer KDAB (Deutschland) GmbH & Co.KG, a KDAB Group Company Tel: +49-30-521325470 KDAB - The Qt, C++ and OpenGL Experts _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
