Anyway my mum thinks she might have spotted one in the Bloomsbury. It said apparition instead of apperation. Those two always make my head hurt. : Re: Scholastic errors and clarifications : Roz July 27, 2005, 06:51:22 PM lol at the way they call it "British English" in America as opposed to "English English" :P

I think the publisher was having a problem with receiving many emails about "errors," so they posted the list. : Re: Scholastic errors and clarifications : Roz July 27, 2005, 07:27:23 PM Yes it would drive me mad if people kept on reporting mistakes that aren't there.
JK probably should have chosen a name other than Rupert - Richard for instance, but it gave us all a good giggle whilst it lasted :) |
