Grey or Gray

female_sketch.jpg

First female based sketch I’ve done for ages and I’m a bit rusty, this doesn’t really look much like the person I was drawing from (I hope you don’t mind !).

One thing this week really made me think, I’d been spelling grey the colour with an E all the time, then I noticed that some other people were spelling grey with an a as in gray. So had I been spelling grey wrong all this time ? No looking at the dictionary it can be grey or gray. That’s completely stupid though, from now on I will be spelling colours as follows yallow, graen, blua and rad.

    Yeah, that’s the English language for you. Alternate pronunciations for the same word, alternate spellings for the same word, one pronunciation for several different words with different meanings, and some words that can mean almost anything given the context. (Uh, what did I just say? I confused MYSELF.)

    RYC: That wasn’t a cold sales call (for appliance insurance), that was opportunity calling. You may have found a way to defeat resistentialism!

    P.S. Very nice sketch. If she doesn’t look like that, she may wish she did.
