You are writing a news story involving a motorcycle wreck.
The brand of motorcycle is a Yamaha and you are not sure how to spell Yamaha.
Do you
(A) Phone a friend? (B) Make something up? or
(C) Look at the damn photo to see how the manufacturer spells it?
At WPTA 21Alive the spell-check is disabled. At WANE TV, they don't use it.

ReplyDeleteROFLMAO...that is just WAY too obvious a solution.
I would opt for the PHONETIC spelling, considering the name is JAPANESE...pretty easy, actually.
(Ebonics it isn't)
Nice find.
Stay safe.
