TEP: Spelling? Seriously?
“Comradery” is not a word.
Hey, I know what you meant. We’re comrades, ne c’est pas? I tried to use that word myself once, so I know from personal experience spellcheck hates it so much, it doesn’t even suggest the correct spelling of “camaraderie.” That persistent squiggly red underline was my cue to consult a dictionary.
That’s probably the only reason this one is sticking in my craw days after encountering it in a book.
Is ”comradery” a fishhook in the eye to anyone without a personal history with the word?
