Responding To Netizen's Reaction

Netizen's Reaction: What can you say about how internet crucified Pokwang about the spelling of iodin vs iodine?


Social media was quick to bash Pokwang about the word iodin in response to Ella de la Cruz's history is life tsismis" gaffe. They open their mouth quick to cash into the latest trending topic and crucify Pokwang only to find themselves they are in the "quicksand" exposing they can be stupid themselves for not even researching before they participated in the gory exercise.

It turns out iodine and iodin are both correct ... iodin being an obsolete alternative for iodine. The moral lesson of the story is, before you canonized somebody and put her on the highest pedestal of stupidity, be wary that it might backfire ... and you will be caught in the crossfire.

And just some reminders: there other words you may be confused about like: specter/spectre acknowledgment / acknowledgement, adapter / adaptor, adviser /advisor, ambience / ambiance,  counselor /counsellor, /doughnut / donut, enclose / inclose. Both are valid-  just so you know.
