I think so, never heard of specie. I don't think a singular form exists for species since it's used to describe a collection/group of something.

'A' + 'species'. E.g. A species (specie?).

^^We (users) are mostly responsible for the changes. And, English, being a living language, adjusts accordingly.

However, we can blame those eggheads for something like this:

Wid[b]th[/b]

^They are measurement words. But, one is "ht'. The other 2 are 'th'.

Hi, guys. I've been busy ni o - very busy!

But, hmm, enjoy this. And, read the comments. Hilarious!

It is about 'likely' and its usage. But, the comments veered away from 'likely'.

Is 'likely' not an adverb? A war between The Economist and the OED.

That bill is just too pro-people, too pro-Nigerians for the powers that be.

It will never be passed into law. I said it some months ago on this forum.
