Just a note from your curmudgeonly neighborhood proofreader: the words “breathe” and “breath” are not interchangeable, and the one is not an archaic or European spelling of the other. They both have their purpose.
“Breathe” is a verb. You breathe deeply. You breathe more clearly after taking a decongestant.
“Breath” is a noun. You take a breath when you breathe. We say something is a breath of fresh air. You curse pedantic, pain-in-the-butt proofreaders under your breath.
Got it? Good.
I’m glad we had this little chat. Carry on, now.
Me flunk English? That’s unpossible!
There always possibilities, my young apprentice.
Tune in next week, when Jason discusses “effect” and “affect.”
😉
Hm. Not a bad idea, actually… 🙂
