Neither does "Combat". Why the hell can't they just spell things correctly for a change?

What the hell are you talking about?

As well as the fact that nobody gives a flying feck, a 'cart' is some form of open topped vehicle used to carry goods and the word 'kart' came into practice when small, speedy vehicles (i.e. Go-Karts) were used for racing.

So do your homework next time, eh? And stop trying to start pointless arguments.

"A miniature car used in racing. Also called go-cart."

There it is. Spelt with a "C". Right there.

Not at all. I'm saying that nobody has any reason to take you seriously on good English when you can't even use capital letters correctly.

Come on, it's quite simple....

by making a comment about capitalising the start of a sentence when you are talking about proper spelling gives the impression that you think capital letters are a part of spelling.....dont go trying to get out of that.

i am arguing that you saying the word "kart" is spelt incorrectly is an invalid argument....it is not to do with proper spelling on the internet...that is not always required.

But when you are arguing about spelling, it rather is.

I'm still wondering when you'll realise that your quote from Dictionary.com doesn't prove your argument.

Capitalising the start of a sentence is not spelling, it is grammar.

Also, I bring to your attention that this is the Internet...a place where perfect spelling, grammar or punctuation is not a prerequisite

You're trying to get into an argument about spelling when you don't know that sentences start with capital letters? Tsk, tsk.
