I thought you were all anti-apostophes, why've you used them so much in the poll choices then?

I'm anti-apostrophes.

The only 2 justifiable apostrophes I've seen in SG-1 are:

Chapp'ai
and
Zatnik'tel

Where a vowel actually is missing. That said I will continue to use them where the show says they should be but they actually shouldn't(Rya'c, Bra'tac, Tau'ri and Goa'uld), but not for words where the spelling is unknown.

dvd's aren't the only way to get the correct spelling of character names. In fact, they are usually wrong, because subtitling is subcontracted by the makers of the dvd, not done by the studio, and are in most cases, wrong.

This is off topic, but seems to be cropping up on a lot of threads. So while JK is justifying us going off topic, I woudl just like to say ...

I don't see how zatnik'tel is the "right" spelling - we've never seen it written down, it could just as well be zatnikitel. Secondly, apostophes are only used for missing letters in the English alphabet (or Romance languages, and Roman alphabet); there is no reason you should apply it to translations of Goa'uld (or AE: though I think spelling Sha're with an apostophe may be correct to show that the name is two words joined together?) For example numerous sites in Egypt have apostophes in, but it's not cos of a missing letter (I think). Like Tel-el'Daba. And I don't know why Tel is hyphenated either, it's a separate word from el, though I have no clue what the last two words mean or signify.

And Anubis... How do you know whether Sokar has the DVD's or not? Do you know each other in RL?

Since Venus mentioned other threads i will say again: No amount of english characters will ever be paramount to the heiroglyphs, and by that argument all spelling are wrong, who really cares? the only reason i bought it up is because someone was telling me I spelt something wrong, i am now thinking about editing that post to oblivion.

And yes Venus, i do know him in RL!
