[edit] Zeroeth Person
Is "zeroeth" the common way to spell that in Ojibwe studies? Because I have always only seen "zeroth". Dictionary.com recognizes "zeroth" but not "zeroeth", and the former gets 1,700,000 Google hits compared to the latter's 36,200. I didn't want to change it, though, in case "zeroeth" was the more common spelling when referring to Ojibwe persons. 206.176.113.70 22:25, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- I've always hear and used "zeroeth" and in the same construct as "zeroes" and "zeroed" but you're absolutely right about the frequency of "zeroth" being much higher than "zeroeth". Maybe this is a variation like color/colour, syrup/sirop, jail/gaol, airplane/aeroplane, sulfur/sulphur, today/to-day, cooperation/coöperation, inflection/inflexion and aluminum/aluminium? I will go ahead and change the spelling. CJLippert 01:04, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
