know the difference between premier and premiere ?

[rh71]

...without looking it up of course...

I always thought the former was just an incorrect spelling. Ooops.

I thought that it was commonly known.

A premiere is the first showing of something. Premier is something that's high quality.

Sure they are. Movie premieres are talked about in the media all the time. There's a car dealership in my city called Premier Auto Group.

You're right about the movie premieres.. which is why I thought any other spelling was incorrect. I thought it had two meanings (to be first/high quality). So that word is common, the other is hardly.

[Heisenberg]

Yes.

he he ya, I wanted to work in some more, but couldnt figure out how. my biggest pet peeve, that I see on the web a lot is when people dont know the difference between

"know" - "now" - "no"
and
"are" - "our"

When I see people who cant even get those right, it leads me to believe they are an uneducated 12 year old.

Welcome to the English language, where many words mean similar or even the same thing!
