before reading this, were you aware that discrete and discreet are two different words? Do you know which means what, without looking it up?
@Felthry hm! "discrete" is kind of hard to define succinctly, isn't it? I feel like there's some subtleties to it but there's some subtleties to both of them tbh

@Felthry You can tell i'm a writer because I answered wrong lol
@Felthry definitions for words that sound the same get mixed up in my mind constantly
@Oneironott understandable, we see people mix them up a lot, that's what prompted the poll in the first place

@Felthry I did! But I learn words differently. The fact that they have similar spellings and pronunciations doesn't make them at all similar to me.
In fact I have a much harder time understanding people when they accidentally use homophones, because I can't *not* see the actual word written.
@Mycroft We're similar, I think!

spoilers, misinformation unless i'm completely correct
@Felthry discreet is discrete for fennecs
