jetsetdanny Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Ian, do you feel strongly about the word "re-enter" being spelt with a hyphen, not as one (unhyphenated) word? I actually wondered about it when working on "WNM SE" Readme, and I went with the spelling in the Cambridge Dictionary, while now I can see that Oxford prefers the hyphen.

IRF Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I guess "reenter" looks okay, but off the top of my head aren't there instances where you used the word "reentered" or "reentering" or "reentrance"? I thought that it started to look a bit 'unwieldy' without the hyphen, so I suggested with the hyphen for consistency. Either is permissible though, it seems.

jetsetdanny Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Should one say >original "JSW"< or >the original "JSW"<? For example in a sentence like: >A classic example of this in the original "JSW" is the red guardian on the left side of "Orangery"< [or whatever]. I'm asking, Ian, because in "WNM SE" Readme you didn't correct <the original "JSW"< (which actually appears a lot of times), but in a comment you added yourself, you just said, "original JSW" (no article). Any guidance on this will be appreciated :) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Another question: "the Air INK" or "the Air's INK"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) I was probably a bit lazy and should have put: the original "JSW". On the latter, probably: the Air's INK. Technically, perhaps it should be: the Air cell's INK. But that might start to get a bit unwieldy when you're saying it lots of times.

jetsetdanny Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Which sounds better: "WNM SE" was released on 10th November 2016, the twelfth anniversary of the release of the OE. or "WNM SE" was released on 10th November 2016, twelve years to the day since the release of the OE. ?

IRF Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Either is fine, I guess the former is more 'formal'. jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks, Ian, I'll probably use the latter then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
