Those suggestions aren't even close.Exactly, thats my point and why the results are so much fun.

What is interesting to see is if ubuntu has made it to the English dictionary yet, I read an article this morning about how they added over 1000 words to the English dictionary. The only word that comes to mind is Sudoku.

[FuturePilot]

There's something wrong with this picture. Besides a great OS, Ubuntu is an actual word with a meaning behind it, and all those online dictionaries don't have a definition for it:-s

[Darkcloud]

not only that but its also a misspelt word on this forums spell checker

[FuturePilot]

You mean Firefox's spell checker? The forum doesn't have one. Anyways make sure it's capitalized.

[RAV TUX]

There's something wrong with this picture. Besides a great OS, Ubuntu is an actual word with a meaning behind it, and all those online dictionaries don't have a definition for it:-s

Simply because it is not recognized in the English language yet as an official word.
