So yeah, everyone chooses to use english differently and that's toootally cool, but the craziest thing we've heard is the word: Heigth. HEIGTH. heigth.HeigthHEIGTH.
"How tall are you?" "I'm 5'6" "Well that's a pretty average heigTH"
We've never encountered this word before. We talked to our friend Barah Swapp (who finished twilight by the way, will update you on that later) and her explanation was this:
Essentially that people get used to the "TH" sound at the end of words that explain the size of something, so then they'll just add the "TH" sound to height, even though it doesn't really belong. She also explained that perhaps height is a different word from heigth altogether. With a different usage and definition, thus suggesting that people aren't saying anything wrong, they're just saying something different than we had originally assumed. We have not researched either theory.
So, what is it? Height or Heigth?
Should we lose weight this summer or should we use weigth?
You tell us.
