I was looking up Adam-ondi-Ahman in the scripture search, and apparently it has a "did you mean" function that lists other people's search words, because when I misspelled it, the options included: - Adam Onti Amen - Adam Onti Ahman - Adam Onti Omen - Adam Onti Ahmes - Adam End Amen - Adam End Ahman - Adam End Omen - Adam End Ahmes - Adam India Amen - Adam India Ahman - Adam India Omen - Adam India Ahmes - Adam Undo Amen - Adam Undo Ahman - Adam Undo Omen - Adam Undo Ahmes I think my favorite is Adam India Omen. I would just like to know where that person heard about the term. That’s alright.

We *do* know how to spell things, really -- it's just that going back and forth between Deseret Alphabet and Reformed Egyptian and our various mission languages makes us temporarily goofy. Yeah, that's it. :) Aw, shucks.

I must admit my searches on LDS.org have been a little troublesome at times. I am spoiled by Google, which finds what I want and puts it toward the top. I usually find what I need with LDS.org, but I often have to click on "page 2" or "page 3" to obtain it.
