Actually you're not being the spelling police. I am! From my recollection Magna used poodles 3 times counting another thread. And it made me smile hugely, especially coming from Magna, who provides so many informative and spot on insights. I'm looking forward to invoking poodles in my own discussions when they start showing off around the arctic.
yeah, it happens at times that i (one) non-native speakers of a language just have some wrongs sticking over years, sometimes decades, until someone is kind enough to point to the mistakes.
mostly it happesn to me in phonetics but as we see, not only. every day i (we) learn and that's a great feeling to go forward and learn. thanks and yes, now it appears funny indeed
i'm not sure what i should think that my mistakes are counted, happy or worried LOL just kidding of course, it's very much ok.
EDIT: try to find the posts with search function but found only 2 if someone remembers the posts who can send me the link for correction would be welcome, just if it's not asking too much
