There is no such word as "heighth". The word is "height" and ends with a "t" sound, not a "th" sound!

Please do not start your story with the phrase, "So there I was..."

The word "Asked" ends with the "D" sound and "Asks" ends with the "S" sound. Neither one ends with the "K" sound, but many people pronounce it that way out of linguistic laziness. The same phenomenon occurs with words like "wasps" and "tasks". I am NOT talking about people who pronounce "ask" as "axe". That is another topic entirely.

Spigot is not pronounced "Spikot".

Grrr! That has me grinding my molars every time as well! Just because height is used in conjunction with length and width, we don't add an h to the end of it!

Same for noone -- there are the pronouns anyone and someone, but not noone, that consists of the two words, no one (no hyphen). But this constant misspell comes about because of the pronouns anybody, somebody, nobody ... and because so many people are lazy.

Spicket is in the online Encarta dictionary. It means spigot.

I have a Websters Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, copyright 1984, that lists two pronunciations for spigot. 'spig·ət, 'spik·ət.

I never heard it pronounced with "th". I wonder if that's a regional pronunciation.

Spigot is not pronounced "Spikot".

Oops. Guilty.

If you are hearing thunder, it is thundering. But if you're seeing lightning, why isn't it lightninging?
