I usually just lurk here, but the "Arctic" discussion leads me to mention that on Hwy 18 down to Lucerne Valley, just a ways past the Mitsubishi mine area, there's a creek that runs under a bridge on the highway, and it's labeled "Artic Canyon Wash". Cracks me up every time I drive past.

I sound like a native Alaskan when I pronouns it correctly! Thank you Nuthatch ! Now let’s work on my English and auto correct.

Does Arctic have a silent C?
The first “c” in the word arctic is not silent. The word is pronounced ahrk-tik, not ahrt-tik. I know that countless meteorologists and reporters will say it incorrectly, and this common mistake will undoubtedly lead to more widespread acceptance and perhaps even a secondary spelling (artic).

And I just blew it and miss-spelled surprise.

There was a motor oil many years ago that called itself Trop-Artic. I'm suprised it got past the proofreaders, but it did and opened the door to the acceptance of mediocre grammar and spelling.
