No, now you're demonstrating a lack of knowledge of modern linguistic theory, this error being consistent with the cohort model of how the brain retrieves items from its lexicon.

"intents" and "intense" are phonetically identical and it is normal to retrieve the wrong word when transcribing, just as I initially typed "your" rather than "you're". This doesn't mean you're thinking of the wrong word. When reading back through what you have written it is common to miss these mistakes for the same reason - the brain makes the same error in reverse. I never for a moment thought I meant the possessive pronoun rather than the contraction of "you are" - and I doubt whether there was any real confusion over the meaning of "intense" and "intents".

If you really wanted to be clever you might have picked up on "judgement" in "before the judgement in all intense and purposes".

Cheers Chatty - its funny to see you rip him to pieces but I already done that with the knowledge part - he is trying to be clever but each post just backfires and as a result he retorted to childish insults and silly gramatical errors....

Thanks for taking to time to point his errors out, that just made my night - not something I can be bothered with cos they just waste valuable forum space for people that actually have a reason to visit a thread.

- thanks again mate .... :T :T
