If I were so inclined, I might create a new form of divination based on a spellchecker.
I mean,when I put "Agincourt" into one, the spellchecker offered "encouraging" instead. Now what if I had told Henry V abbout that? He would have lauded me as a prophet of great skill.
So let's see what we can come up with for some other familiar names and terms.
Agincourt -> "encouraging" Certainly to henry.
Pontrefract -> "refracting" The death of King John gave everyone a whole new biew of things.
Crécy -> "précis" Perhaps if the French king had submitted one...
Clontarf -> "frontal" Those darn Vikings with their frontal attacks.
Roncesvalles -> "convaliscences" If only Roland could have.
Fothringay -> "mothering" Sorry, Mary, it's far too late for that.
What can you come up with?
