Colombia is not spelt with a 'U'

You would think after the group rounds people would know.

COLOMBIA is not COLUMBIA like Columbia records or whatever other big American ignorant thing you are used to.

Have a little respect people and get the name of country right if you want to write about it. I'm sure you wouldn't like people calling your home country by a different name despite making the knockout stages of the tourney.

I know its hard for some of you Gringos to get off the couch and pull an encyclopedia to verify or even google with  two fingers..probably too much for most of you lot. But you know now. COLOMBIA is with a farking 'O'!!!!!

Sheesh. Lets spell the USA with a fooking USU and see how you turds like it after the 80th time.

Thank you

bunch of degenerate parrots most of u lot.

Good point... I make that mistake, too.

minus my Colombian friendly amigo - Zamigo. He gets the word right unlike the rest of u pork chops.

Got it Kolombia IT IS

I knew a salami like Dj would ruin the party.

Hey half my girls family is from Kolombia


don't blame the ego centric yanks for thinking its all about College throwball 

thank you, I'm sure that will come in handy on the next "Spell that 3rd world country" game night at my house

Finest producer of cocaine in the world.

Khenson: Firstly,  Colombia isn't a third world country.
So because you assume spanish speaking folks living in the US  dont learn your national language that it means something about you people spelling the country 'Colombia' Columbia?

This is not about learning a new language, this is about learning ABC. How do we spell a country correctly.
I know Khenson you want to make it a race thing and  learning OUR language thing. But to the rest of the world you Khenson come off as completely stupid. Did I spell that correctly?

KOLUMBIEN ! 

It's been driving me nuts as well 

There isn't a U but there is an I, remember there is no I in Team.

But there is one in cont.

The real question is: can the country with 3 Us and legal pot beat the country with no Us and all the cocaine? To toke or to snort, that is the question! Ha

Spelt?  Isn't "spelt" a type of wheat?  It is "spelled" my friend, not "spelt"!

Go back to school.

Columbia women got nice assssssssss

Agreed; and on that point, “u” should actually be spelled “you.”

In addition, while ending a sentence with a proposition is arguably acceptable, it really is something one should strive to avoid.

Further, while not an absolute rule, firms generally prefer that you capitalize their trademarks if you are going to use them as verbs —e.g. “googling.” (Quite frankly, they would prefer you not use their trademarks as verbs in the first place since it weakens the trademark.)  Conversely, foreign words — like “gringos” — do not necessarily need to be capitalized. 

The verb “Google” generally requires an object.

Commas should be used before and after direct addresses to the reader/audience.

Don’t forget to use definite and indefinite articles before nouns when appropriate; but don’t use them when they are not required.

The first word in a sentence should be capitalized.

When two adjectives are strung together, they should be separated by a comma.  On the other hand, compound adjectives — such as “spanish speaking” — should be hyphenated (and “Spanish” should be capitalized).

Contractions —like “lets” and “dont” — require an apostrophe.

While starting a sentence with a conjunction is unusual (but not impermissible), keep in mind that a subordinate clause preceding an ordinate clause should be separated by a comma.  That goes even for sentences that do not begin with a conjunction.

Questions should end with a question mark.

Finally, while “more simple” is acceptable, many people find “simpler” to be preferable.

I could go on, but I have a match to watch.

Does not matter, just bring home the bacon$$ Colombia

here it's Kolumbia 

How do they spell pretentious in Colombia or England?


Get off your high horse. This is a gambler's forum, not an advanced studies of the English language forum. Your pompous lecture is a bit much.


Good grief.

That's a bit rich!

Pretentious? Moi?

Haha....go get laid and relax learnersrealm....this is a betting forum, not spelling bee 101........you speak of spelling Colombia wrong as highly disrespectful....have you read some of these chains and the lack of respect that goes on around here?....pick your battles mate....
