Slackr Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Just a heads up, Focaccia needs to be spelt as Foccacia instead. It's a typo. Was scratching my head trying to figure out why it was wrong 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was scratching my head trying to figure out why it was wrong I don’t think it’s a typo... it’s spelled “Focaccia”. Never seen it spelled as Foccacia in my life. Maybe they’re interchangeable?

I’m saying the exact opposite of what he’s saying. He is saying it is spelled “Foccacia”. I am saying it is spelled “Focaccia”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckydonut Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Yes, it is incorrect. It seems to be spelt wrong very frequently (even on some respectable recipe sites when I search) so I can only assume it slipped through that way. My spellchecker actually reports both the correct and incorrect spellings as wrong. I wonder if I can get away with blaming technology for this...? We could argue about spelt vs spelled all day long, but while (or whilst) we're talking about bread I choose spelt. Because irony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDiivil Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I'm guessing it'd be a fairly common thing with English loan words like that, seeing as English doesn't have a phonetic equivalent of what the c's in the word represent. So if I show a native English speaker the words focacia, foccacia, focaccia, foccaccia, they'd all likely look pretty much the same. Also means the spelling would likely to vary. This is of course a simplified explanation of this phenomenon, but it should work. If there is one "correct" spelling of the word, it'd be focaccia as that's how it's written in Italian. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slackr Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 Oh ya it's not a huge deal, just a tip for those running into it wondering why it isn't working. Sounds like spelt vs spelled is a regional thing as well, https://www.grammarly.com/blog/spelled-spelt/ As Canadian we often follow British spelling, so splet seems more natural to me.

It's not. It's just hoidy toidy British speak for spelled. Also, he may have been using it as a food/bread pun. On 2/18/2019 at 6:27 AM, luckydonut said: Yes, it is incorrect.

You're right, we could argue about spelt v spelled all day long - and your usage of spelt above was incorrect.

Lol, was going to say, as any country/state/individual who speaks English, I wouldn't think "splet" would feel natural. Almost like it would feel wrong ...
