Took you long enough. Not enough jibberish, must try harder.

Now I always thought it was "gibberish", but Google accepts your version.

However, I tried Googlefight. 
Gibberish - 235,000
Jibberish - 22,600

 

I'm easily pleased.  

But I'm still not going to welcome every newbie just to boost my postcount

I'm afraid the English language has been well and truly bastardised. My missus is in education and the spellings she is 'forced' to accept are no more than basic phonetics.

The logic behind this is that they know what they are trying to say and that is good enough.



Did you know that in y6 sats tests, if the sitter cannot read, then someone is appointed to read the questions for them. In exceptional circumstances, they are allowed to write for them.


Just who is sitting this test. And the scope for cheating.........well.

Don't get me started!  My wife teaches Y2, and I am absolutely horrified by the stuff she has to teach.  Those poor kids don't stand a chance.

And since I know she won't be reading this, I can add that any of them who learn any IT "skills" from Mrs. J. and her colleagues are going to be in deep, deep trouble later in life
