idioma inglés Spelling question: All right

My English teacher goes ballistic if anyone spells alright with one "l" and I just wanted to know how many people on here would agree with her. I think it's all right (?) either way.
My argument for that is that in Jane Austen books (or whatever) things are spelt differently, like chuse instead of choose or ancle instead of ankle or stile instead of style (as in style of writing) and that was correct then but over time language changed, and now our spellings are correct, so why don't we keep changing the language rather than holding it back for pedants? But if anyone has a different opinion please explain it. |
