There are many further variations on today’s mangle (I haven’t included verb forms, for one matter), but here’s a representative sample.
This is a rather unfortunate juxtaposition on the website of ACODE (the Australasian Council on Open, Distance and E-Learning):
Link: ACODE, ‘Acomodation ACODE 62’* |
The University of Birmingham’s website has a page offering information about an EMBO (European Molecular Biology Organisation) conference:
Link: University of Birmingham, EMBO Conference 2014, ‘The Mighty Daphnia: Past Present and Future’‡ |
Here’s the BBC, offering helpful information for those attending its 2013 Winter Good Food Show:

It’s not just the consonants that cause confusion:
Link: Reed.co.uk, ‘Chef De Partie Luxury Hotel with accommadation’ |
Link (secure page): Facebook | iQStudents; cf. Google Search ‘iQ Sheffield Student Accommadation’ |
You’d think an estate agent would have a better grip on the word:
Link: Zoopla via The Telegraph, ‘2 bedroom terraced house for sale’ |
Finally, a contribution from The Grauniad:
Link: The Guardian | Travel | Brussels |
‡ The title lacks any punctuation on the homepage of the conference and contains only one capital letter.
