supersized the Y in yorkshire

Posted Jan 20, 2004 by Deidzoeb -=- Underguide A1103329
Hi Bob,

The only change I made was to capitalise the word "Yorkshire". I suspect that "metamorphosise" is not a real word, but it's probably funnier that way. I'm going to check with one of the Underguide Editors to find out if we have a policy about adding "referenced entries" links to ones not in the Edited Guide or Underguide. Otherwise, looks finished.

Thanks,
Deidzoeb

yikes Surpriesed to find metamorphosise isn't a word. Oh, well: never mind. Perhaps you should add a footnote: "metamorphosise is not a word - Ed."

smiley If you want to remove the referenced entries, I've no problems with that.

ale for editing the entry,

Bob McBob

Thanks! cheers

I'll take off the referenced entries, but I'll read them and see if they might be steered toward the Underguide on their own merits.

Later,
Deidzoeb

I had to look it up. Metamorphose is the verb, metamorphosis is a noun, and when you see more than one of them at the same time, it would be metamorphoses. (Last part pronounced like -ease.)

But if cheese were to "metamorphosise" then I'm afraid that doctors would have to "diagnosise" our problems instead of diagnosing them, and I'd get scared if a doctor told me he was going to give me his "diagnosisation".

However the only thing sillier than a word like "metamorphosise" would be trying to change it to something less funny in an article about training cheese. So I vote to leave it there.

"Still one of the most brilliant entries.

I vote to leave the "metamorphosise" as it indeed increases the fiction just enough.

Sorry 'Bob McBob' I have followed the process in the UG but did not reread the article.

The second paragraph in wild Cheese seems 'new' to me.
But should ' coordnators ' not be written as ' coordinators '?"
