non-legible :) heheheh...
I am not laughing. I think that is one of the cutest mistakes I have seen in quite some time :)))

of course, the real word is "illegible"

if you are wondering, illegible handwriting in slangy conversational American English is called chicken-scratch.
e.g. "I can't read this. It's just a bunch of chicken-scratch."

Also, sometimes, if we are feeling good that day, we might say,
"I can't make heads or tails of this/I can't read this/I can't make it/this out. It's written in Doctor."

суперский пост! спасибо за просвещение!

только non-legible - это не ошибка. это legalese. документы были составлены уважаемой юр. конторой в Лондоне. думаю они так бы не опростоволосились. хотя, кто знает?

про illegible все понятно.

Никто не опростоволосился - дело знают. :-)

[Nina79]

OK, so if it's legalese, that's fine. I will keep it in mind.

But, Alexis a.k.a. Althea, what I posted was not just cutSIE giggles - but indeed actual (in another context, but actual) and, I think the asker appreciated the extra knowledge (and I hope you do as well).

[prorender]

Nina79, I surely appreciated the knowledge. Keep it up and maintain the positive mental attitude that you have demonstated! Thanx!

Спасибо, Alexis a.k.a. Althea.

For those doubters a.k.a believers - it never hurts to check

cutesie/cutesey = alternative spellings, both acceptable

Haste makes waste ...

Alexis a.k.a. Althea
ok, so there are two ways to spell it. good. now we all know.

and as to "haste makes waste": i already said that i was convinced that you can use it for purposes of legalese so, i think the point is kind of moot, don't you?

[prorender]

Girls, take a deep breath! Do not waste your time arguing. Just make yourself a nice cup of coffee and get back to making more dough (or whatever you were busy doing).

Thank you all for being so meticulous. Just avoid being too donnish. Cheers!
