As a Canadian, I sometimes hear "zee," but for the most part, I think the great majority of Canadians say "zed." I sure do.

August 5Aug 5 15 minutes ago, Paul K said:I don't mind, as long as we don't start saying 'I could care less'. 😡Agreed. This is just due to ignorance(not in an insulting way), however, and not the American version of that phrase. Same thing applies to the phrase "should of" instead of the correct "should have", which I notice people using all to frequently.I've watched Brits routinely mangle English pretty badly as well. Many say "I were" instead of "I was", or "I was sat" instead of "I was sitting". Just a few examples.

August 5Aug 5 KNEEL BEFORE ZOD😆As for Zardoz....the movie Zardoz was just weird. The ultimate in 1970's cheese.I hope you UK-denizens don't start using too many Americanisms. Keep your own thing! That is what makes us all (and all/various places) wonderful in our own unique way. Take "Restroom" for example. Don't you use loo or WC (watercloset)? I remember in Germany they used WC. I saw that and wondered "what the heck is WC?" -- I found out pretty quickly.But anyway, I could care less. (heh) Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
