Nightinggale Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 All I see here is a thread about something with children and somebody being pedantic about spelling.

SakuraKoi Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I don't think you want to know for how long I have seen and written an L in a term related to the pubic bone because... well, how should I know what each bone is called, in a language foreign to me?!

Nightinggale Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Quote Chid. n.: Variant pronunciation of the word "kid" , as sung by Michael Jackson in his song "Billy Jean". Later it came to become a word in it's own right... Apparently this thread is due to Michael Jackson being unable to spell.

thewreckedangle Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 like orchid, right? sporechid although i might start calling my chids "sporechilds" from now on.. as they seem to have turned into some hellish spore-like monsters due to the heat and summer holidays!

So, it’s pronounced like Orchid (or-kid)? But with a “sp” in front? *mind blown*. I wonder if I still would have been confused if it were spelled sporchid instead of adding that “e” in there. I bet long hours were spent at Klei discussing those two spelling options when they decided to make spore orchids a thing.

Gurgel Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I think I have to label this topic "who cares?" Normally I do not read threads with titles such as this one at all. If somebody claims something is "important", but does not give specifics, it basically never is. Usually it is SPAM.

Snotfroth Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Considering metallichydra's picture, this seem important to him/her. I've never even encountered this plant in game but I've seen people complain about it zombifying their dups so I assumed the sporechid used mind-control spores to turn dups into their sporechildren.

Mariilyn Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Probably because lots of non-native speakers instinctively presume it is pronounced sporechide, which sounds a lot like sporechild.

Darkin Coaled Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Admittedly I did first read it as sporechild, but that's because I have like -2 on each eye AND astigmatism. I did re-read it at some point soon after though. Seriously though, the public bone?
