Anything in plural. You know, ship's, missile's, apostrophe's…
Oh, and it's spelled ≡v≡, so there!

Dreadnaught - CCP spells it dreadnought.TBH I think dreadnaught is right, but who knows.
I know and the O spelling is correct.
Actually, both are correct.

No they are not although the A spelling is common on the internet. Dreadnought was a specific individual historic ship and use of the name for ship types is copied from this.
Doesn't matter. The HMS Dreadnought may have been spelled that way, but that ship, in turn, took its name from the general word dreadnought, which can also be spelled dreadnaught since naught and nought are the same word (albeit hailing from different eras).
So sayeth OED…

Uhm.
My english teacher would've crucified me for writing "misspelled" instead of "misspelt". :-|
That's just because she was using the Queen's (old) English… and even there, it's on its way out.

Armour is definately one that annoys me, mind you I can't spell very well.
Why does it annoy you? That's how it's spelled, after all…
