That's English spelling. Skeptical in America.Wait, isn't it spelled "sceptical"? My dictionary says so, too!
My thoughts exactly.Although Plushenko’s spins are faster than they were in 2006, they are still slow. The ending combination spin in his short program inched along, and he needs to work on adding more variety to his spins. Along with this, the choreography in both of his programs isn‘t as strong as it could be, and his programs have far too much two-footed skating. Plushenko’s hip rolling and rapid arm movements may be fun to watch, but I don‘t know how they‘ll stand up to Patrick Chan‘s edgework and artistry.
I felt he was over cocky with all the #1 finger pointing. I love his jumping technique, but can do without the cockiness. A turn off for me.perceived as cocky by some

So Latin is not good enough for the Americans, they need Greek. Such cockiness.Latin Sceptici, Greek Skeptikoi.

Americans find pronouncing c as k before e to be deeply, deeply unsettling.
Enjoying the grammar lesson. While Canadians take a lot of spellings from the British, we also (usually) use K in skeptical.
Kanadians and Amerikans should never be konfused with our more stodgy British kousins akross the pond.
We kan scate............. and they kan komment about scating.
