I have noticed lately that a lot of users on Lemmy spell whining as “whinging” what’s up with that? I could understand if it was misspelled “wining” or somthing but that extra g really confuses me. Is this a misspelling specific for some region or is it lingo of some sort?

    Not so sure about the first part of your name

    I just saw it getting used by non-british people after the show when I didn’t before. It’s an anecdote. I don’t have statistics and if you care enough to prove me wrong I’ll accept it’s confirmation bias
