Talk:Judgment

Yotsuba
The character chart had a character named Yotsuba on it, as a member of Judgment; are there any pictures of her, or has anyone seen what she looks like?

Judgement?
I maybe wrong but. Isn't it Judgement. Not Judgment?

edit.

wow. Judgment is actually a word. And all the baka-tsuki translations use judgment. >.>

BUT, railgun's theme song is named '-Level 5- Judgelight' with an 'e'. Still not very convinced.

Any clarification would be nice.


 * Both spellings are correct, and can be used interchangably (depending on what country you are from). I don't know why Zekblue used Judgment instead of Judgement when he created this article, though it maybe because wikipedia uses the former instead of the latter. Anyway, if you like you can simply make a redirect page for Judgement, though, if you can find any reliable source that states Judgment is actually Judgement, then I don't see why we cannot simply change its name.


 * Also, Judgelight is a combination of two different words, while Judgment is combination of of a word judge and the suffix -ment. The reason why 'e' is omitted is because an authorized version of the Bible uses the word, as such the spelling of the word is preferred in a legal context throughout the common law world. In a non-legal context, judgment is the more prevalent spelling in the USA, New Zealand, Canada and probably any country who does not use the British English way of spelling things.


 * For now, since we cannot find a reliable source that the correct spelling is Judgement, then we should adhere to American English spelling. Also, the Japanese to English translator I used, uses the American English spelling.


 * I hope I helped enlighten you on this subject.---TheGreatEye 13:29, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
