I was going to add "know how to spell filet" to the list, but a quick check shows me that "fillet" also is correct. So there, I've learned something new.

I'm not sure I would include digital photography on the list.

I prefer that spelling, too.

In engineering, a “FILLET” (2 L’s) is pronounced exactly as it looks like in English (not that French pronunciation), and means a rounded corner.

Unlike a chamfer, which is a simple cut-off type corner.

BTW, I change the oil. My husband doesn’t get into cars like I do - but he could do it. Just never cared to and doesn’t know how yet.
