So we'd sit with these girls during school hours, and we told them, if they'd slip off, that we'd get away, and we'd go to to a spelling.
Because Elizabethan spelling was fluid, editors feel free to ‘modernize’ (correct) the spelling in the quartos and the Folio. But how is one to spell Rosencratz or Guildenstern, where the spelling varies, not only from text to text, but even within texts?.
Guildensterne and Rosincrance are F’s consistent spellings.
Spelling bees are stupid.
- Heceleme yarışması aptalcadır.
The neighbors' son won the spelling bee at school.
- Komşunun oğlu okulda heceleme yarışmasını kazandı.
Her name was spelled wrong.
- Onun adı yanlış hecelendi.
You spelled my name wrong.
- Sen benim adımı yanlış heceledin.
Many words are pronounced according to the spelling, but some are not.
- Birçok kelimeler hecelerine göre telaffuz edilirler fakat bazıları değil.
Please tell me how to spell your name.
- Adınızı nasıl heceleyeceğimi lütfen bana söyleyin.
