The Town of Odyssey

Donut/Doughnut?

Disc/Disk?

Theater/Theatre?


Which way do you spell it?

Which way do spell it? Disk or disc?

This is the first time I realized that there were to ways to spell disk. However, I personally would use disk, because 'k' is more common as a final letter than 'c'.

Which way is it spelt?

I prefer doughnut because doughnuts made of dough. Also, donuts looks like it could be pronounced "do nut". I am not sure if I actually spell it "doughnut" regularly though.

I agree with you, Moontide. It makes the most sense. So I say Doughnut

I think it should be spelled theatre, but I don't have any justification for it.

It is actually nation-specific, but it is now a classist thing.

I've never seen anyone spell it doughnut, and would never spell it that way myself, and, even though it may make more sense, I don't think anyone would confuse donut for do nut...

I merged the three "How to spell" threads into one so they are not so redundant, plus, all word spelling variations can be discussed here.

I don't think anyone would confuse donut for do nut...

I would agree that it would likely only a problem for people learning to read.
