no, a typo is when you type the wrong letter, but adding "s" to form a plural is not a typo.

So an added letter can't be a 'typo'? :conf:

Well if you look at the two lines above, it's fair to assume you wouldn't add an s anyway, but rather a ' as in 'today' video.

We once had a front page headline here that read:
I wont tell lie

Now how the editor missed that when it was in huge,bold font is beyond me.

So if the German website makes an "error" when its clearly a typo, you will make a thread that says "somebody teach these Germans thier own language?

Well Americans tend to write English anyway they like. On the news I grate my teeth when I hear "A new report came out Sunday", here we would say "A new report came out on Sunday" or the say "May 13th xyz happened" and not "On the 13th of May".

Sorry just sounds really weird to me. And the way you say aluminium! :toothless
