Unintellyjent, indyiestible distortion

摘要

LAST winter, when I wanted to stock up on the Niger seeds that attract goldfinches and redpolls to my bird feeders, I made a point of buying them from a market stall that labelled them as such rather than from a large store that offers "nyjer" seeds. This crass distortion of the word is both unintellyjent and indyjestible, and I personally shall intransyjently stick to the original spelling.
