I always wondered. I read a lot of English speaking people write like:
Hoping is written: Hopeing
Knowing is written: Knoweing
even Flaming to Flameing?
I'm just wondering. Is it an American English thing to write without the (e), or just a common misspelled thing?.
lliek armor - armour etc?
It's something to do with the American version of the English language, like colour (In the UK) is color in America and favourite (In the UK) is favorite in America.
It's weird, innit?
Armour is french for closet. :eh:
Anyway, I believe it's a grammatical error, not sure though.
lol, my name was originally a spelling mistake but ended up coming handy seeing as noone used that spelling for it XDQuote:

The only real differences in language are things like your Honorable/Colorful opposed to our Honourable/Colourful. That and you speak funny.
Grammatical error.Quote:

It's not an American thing, it just shows you how bad the IQ of online teens is getting. I mean, you're pretty bad if you go from first grade through high school not knowing how to properly add -ing to word.
