Furthermore, to protest against the less frequent but equally annoying argument of different nation's spelling I am now going to spell the words 'harbour' and 'favourite' as 'harbr' and 'favrite'*. That's right I've taken the o's out as well.:snooty:


*Most likely respectively.

Yes, I suppose Fetlock, Hoof, Hand(4") and the likes would all come from a norse.:unsure: Storm is the only thing I can think, at the moment, that could come from gael.:cry:

Not sure (I may be incredibly wrong here) but I think that the words "carriage" (or is it "cart") and "iron" may have gaelic roots.
