You are worried about this bloody Serbain woman and you can not even spell simple English words properly, come on get your priorities right here!

lol, i guess my situation has sent my spelling and concentration to the dog house :)

by the way

generalize, AMERICAN

Generalise, BRITISH

there are two spellings :)

so maybe the dam Serbian isn't blowing my concentration totally :) but a lot

I have never used this type of spelling, mind you, I am not a very good speller myself so I will not get too bogged down in a debate about spelling.

wow you started the spelling thing and even called me names over it and even brought another person into it quote 'bloody Serb' lol.

so please don't question me on my spelling unless you are in the position to do so, thanks

I am right and you are wrong. We spell the word generalize as generalize and in fact it was you who started this off by criticizing a Polish girl's spelling of the word. I did not start this topic of conversation. As for the bloody Serbian girl, I could not care two brass monkeys what you do. And in the same room, I would say the same to your face. You can idz do diabla.

Serbain


I realise that you are struggling with the concept of British spelling Michal you only alledgedly live here then again that doesn't stop the natives either. You're learning but we're very fond of our ise they're the window to our nationality apparently.

But because it's called English we're rightly proud that it was the other lot that mucked up the spelling, not us. The only reason it's the norm as you claim is because they're the ones that make the computer software.
When Word goes through an English English text you see more red than on the Sudanese Coast.
No wonder we all prefer text speak. Less of a Pain in the arse Michal. That's Ass for you non English English users. Or was it a Baguette?

edit: I am right and you are wrong.

I admire your self belief but on this occasion, it's Honours even. And look there is another one.

criticizing a Polish girl's spelling

i was not criticising just explaining to her how to spell the word, i think you'll find i did it in a civil manner.

of course not, a self centred guy like you i wouldn't expect anything else

Generalise or generalize both are perfectly acceptable. Both are correct. It's the same with quite a few words where you can either use an 's' or an 'x'........both are grammatically correct !

That's not a nice thing to say to Torny, and I think if anyone said it to you , you would be complaining about it.......

It just means something like ' Go to Hell' or go to the devil......but it's more like swearing at someone when you say it in Polish...... Well, that's what i was taught anyway and I was brought up 'proper' like <g> There is no justification for michal making that comment towards you !

You are totally correct about generalise and generalize......bit like legalise and legalize..........etc.....

Michal is wrong !!

Are you going to argue about one letter and a mistake in spelling? That's just silly...

There was no error in the spelling/spellings and Tornado was correct. it's not about arguing, a lot of people here rely on knowing about such issues as they are learning English. It appears that Michal is the one who wishes to argue the toss !!
