    No you don't. In norwegian the last letters in the alphabet is æøå (swedish and danish too)

    Cool Re: Last Word

    That was a weird answer.

    If at first you don't succeed - just buy the company and tell them to make the one you want.

    Yes, that is correct. But you should also be aware that, in English:

    their != there != they're



    (You should have used the second one. )

    Oh yeah, word.

    Re: Last Word

    ah, finally, a post in the spirit of what this thread was meant to be : gattering the nit-picking, spelling correcting, grammar obsessed know-it-alls and let them fight over getting the last word.

    And I suppose you're right about the their != there != they're.
    It's kinda weird. My brain knows the difference, but my fingers make the mistake and my eyes don't see it. I've noticed I write 'your' where it should be ' you're ', there in stead of they're, ... - even in this sentence, I first wrote "wright", then "corrected it to 'right', while it could only be "write". Weird.

    At least you have taken the time to learn another language. (assuming that English isn't your native language) That's more than most native English speakers will ever do. (I can order beer and ask for directions to the restroom in two other languages, but that's pretty much my limit )

    Don't underestimate the power of ordering beer in different languages. That is pretty important Cerveza, birra, øl, pilsner, piwo and the list go on and on

    Edit : When where talking beer on an open source forum. Check out some open source beer : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vores_%C3%98l
