Ummm, that wasn't a spelling mistake, it was a grammar mistake. "Sought" was the word you wanted.

I can't spell either, but I aced every grammar test I ever took. Sorry, grammar mistakes, to me, are like fingernails down a blackboard. It wasn't meant to be a slam.

And Voyages in English is a classic Catholic textbook.

I did the best I could in grammar tests, just keep in mind, I have had the spelling/grammar mistake used against me so many times on various message boards that I just no longer think people picking apart things so minor such as spelling is productive. I understand you didnt mean it as a slam, but still, did you need to bring that up?

My saying is to people who do not like my spelling, deal with it. Typos and spelling errors happen, this is not a PHD thesis we are writing in FR.
