I have a sneak peek question.

Is it a SSD "thing" to spell Sneak Peek as Sneak PEAK (peek spelled with incorrect usage). I'm not trying to be a meanie here I'm just curious cause at first I thought it was a mistake but then I see it everywhere like that and am wondering if it's just the "SSD thing to do" LOL.

Please don't tar and feather me. I ask this question in love with no judgments made LOL

LOL - I don't know. I new here. But that's a good question because I just put together my sneak peeks and now am wondering if I should have used the 'alternate' spelling. :)
 
Yea, what bree said.

This is what bugs me about the english language. Why does there have to be words with two different meanings and spellings but sound the same. So silly.
 
Oh I'm so embarrassed. I usually am pretty proud of my good spelling... and look what I did in my post! Oh well, I fixed it. :)
 
Thank God you brought this up, E. You know how much it sets off my Inner Editor, but I was just going to let it go outta love.

But now that you brought it up... YES! It's peAk as in mountain and peEk as in sneak.

I think sneak being spelled with an 'ea' is what confuses the 'ee/ea' business.
 
Ok girls - really I did not mean to offend anyone and hope I didn't, I just was thinking maybe it was a cutie SSD thing kwim? Honestly I bet most people don't even notice it one way or the other - I was actually chatting with a friend and she mentioned it to me and I realized that most of the "peeks" I see are "peaks" LOL.
 
I'm just embarrassed that I didn't notice it. I guess I was too busy being excited over what was IN the misspelled wordz.:o
 
lol, I don't think I've ever noticed. My eyes/brain are too occupied with trying to figure out what the new goodies are :p
 
I've always noticed, and then when I made one for Julie this morning I confused myself! Lol! I went to dictionary.com to double check myself! LOL!

rofl...when i posted the sneek peek on dani's blog i had to correct myself but now i'm wondering if maybe i have it spelled both ways on the post :huh:
 
total error on my part, I know how it should be spelled and I blame it on lack of sleep (I just had to stay up past my bedtime last night to watch ER ... and then spend time with hubby ... and then eat a cinnamon roll cause he was eating one ... and then watch some more TV cause he was watching ...)
I am off to fix all my boo boos

Well - it could be peAk as in meringue and go with the whole theme here? :p

I'm ashamed to admit I never even noticed, and those types of mistakes are usually big pet peeves of mine
 
Sonja - don't feel like you have to fix it, seriously it is NOT just you! It's everywhere....

The hamburger helper made me laugh! :)
 
already fixed at my end, just have to do the online stuff - wasn't too difficult. lol I can also blame it on the fact that I hadn't even MADE my coffee this morning when I did mine. lol I was soo excited to be able to do a sneak peek. hehee
 
And did anyone notice that I spelled SNEAK wrong in the title of my thread???? Seriously, I guess it's just a tricky phrase LOL!
 
Yeah I always try and type sneek peek or sneak peak....but i spelled mine right this week! woot haha

Well, since LA said it.... yeah, that's me all over. Plus I know if I correct one thing, then it just won't stop and next thing I know, you're calling me the Spelling Nazi...

Then again, I'm horrified at my own spelling a lot of times, and I totally don't even realize I've done it! I get multitasking, and trying to reply to too many things at once, and my brain is off somewhere else all together... usually trying to lure me to shop, or some idea has sprung into my head and I've drifted off thinking about that...
