dilemma/dilemna
For some reason, I always used the latter until a few years ago when I saw 'dilemma' used quite a lot. I did assume it was the yank version but a bit of googling made me realise I must be wrong... or was I?
There seems to be some online debate about it too... ppl admit to using it but have no idea where from. It's hardly a spelling err in the traditional sense? Odd.
The only word I can think that's similar is 'damn'
