That was disorienting until I could see the sky in the frame. What a cool spot!
8 u/humanlikesubstances Feb 12 '25 I would like to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation; you did not say "disorientated". 1 u/Queasy-Event8534 Feb 12 '25 Or conversated. 1 u/MonsieurReynard Feb 12 '25 That is the legitimate British spelling of same word. Disoriented is the American spelling. But disorientated will likely pass your spell check. 1 u/humanlikesubstances Feb 12 '25 Is it really? I thought it was part of the trend to add extra syllables to words. It still sounds atrocious to me, irregardless. (I did that intentionally, spell check picked up on that one). 1 u/MonsieurReynard Feb 12 '25 edited Feb 12 '25 Yes it is. https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/orient-or-orientate-is-it-a-real-word Also includes the common American term “commentator,” which why isn’t it “commenter?”
