I saw something on tv about an US national spelling competition. How on earth can anyone turn spelling into a competitive event? And why award correct spelling? Why not award imaginative spelling? 'ere est whatt th' whyrlde wydd bee lykh'f spellyng were't l'ft mor t' individual choyce. A mutsh freeer and mor' ecspressyyv plaiss.
Someone who can only think of one way to spell a word has no imagination.
