Your Letters

17:56 UK time, Monday, 19 July 2010

SL (Friday letters), you should in fact congratulate Pink on her knowledge of the German spelling of Nuremburg. The only laziness on her part was to miss the umlaut on the u, but that can be excused, considering her injuries.
James O, Oxford

SL, Pink's spelling was perfectly fine. Admittedly, she left out the umlaut, but since she was addressing a German audience, I'm inclined to consider it a nice piece of localisation rather than lazy English.
MB, Oxford

SL from London, Nuremberg is one of several German cities which has an Anglicised name. In German it is Nurnberg, so it wasn't really laziness. Although of course if an umlaut is omitted it has to be replaced by an "e". I'll get my coat.
Edmund, Durham, England

Re. "adolescence... topshop" PM is definitively outed as a girl. (Though this does not of course preclude the possibly of subsequent gender reassignment.)
Kev, Shepton Mallet

Surely it's a serious understatement to say that Mr Ward could "make a mint"? If they're the size of, say, an After Eight, then I expect he could make several million of them.

Beth in Friday's letters, not according to
Mark, Bridge

I always thought that tag was the US word for tig. Or is it just where I live that it's called that? Please crowdsource me an answer.
Phil, Guisborough

This story about vuvuzelas being banned at a music festival and the quote that "the potential of Westlife being drowned out was an absolute nightmare"". Too many jokes...
Tom, Croydon

"The alert was sparked after the bull was spotted looking through the window of the renal dialysis unit at about 1530 BST on Friday." That just has to be the best sentence to appear on this site so far this year.
Rob, London, UK

For all those upset about the new look and who have trouble finding Magazine, why not do as I have, and add it to favourites? So much easier (loving the makeover, btw.)
Robyn, Cheshire
