My observation of the natives shows that they commonly commit errors of this
magnitude :)

Your messages are deliberately obnoxious, unpleasant, and off-topic to

I'm glad to learn that you're already feeling better. That post is a
lot better than *cough*. There's no humor in the "choice" of word
misspelled. It just so happen that I was "betrayed" by my mother
tongue. That's how intellectual is spelled. That is a common mistake
both in words or numbers.
I think you're missing the humor in the "choice" of word misspelled. If you're
going to criticize Fred's intelligence, you should take care to ensure that you
spell intellectual correctly. Otherwise, it puts quite a damper on your
argument. If I was getting heart surgery, I would want my surgeon

When I misspelled the word intellectual I wasn't referring to certain
people whose language skills revolve around being spell checkers. It
is always a thrill to trample on somebody else's language, mostly
when they can't utter a single word on any other except their own
language, much less addr

Well, I lived the spanish transition [1]. I don't know if it is the same
thing, but, let me say that it was a very confusing time. People thought
sometimes that constitution must be done by teachers in primary schools.
That counciousness of the individual role in public things, although naive,

In Modern Standard Arabic, the word "destour" or "dustur" denotes
"constitution". I don't think there is double meaning intended here.
Tunisia is one of the more modernized countries in the Arab world and
people there have relatively good connection to the Internet. I don't
know the exact number

Well, as far as I see, it seems to be a charming, naïf initiative, but very
interesting anyway. Destour has a local and not easy to translate meaning. I
think it means both a political party involved in Tunis independence and
also an aspirtation to become a constitutional country. I don't really kn
