Interesting day, and at last some scores, but table is updated subject to a STEWARDS INQUIRY.....

Josh 9.86 (5)

Annie 4.90 (9)

Peter n/s (4)

Pedro n/s (6)

Al n/s (9)

Stewards Inquiry into Annie's replacement. Annie had win only and comment 'going for it' originally, then put 'place' on her replacement - which won scoring 22.00

Stewards to determine Annie's intended tip....

Inquire vs Enquire

By Ali Hale
 

One of our readers, Susabelle wrote to ask:

Can you take on explaining the difference between “inquire” and “enquire?”

These are two spellings of the same word, which means to seek information about something or to conduct a formal investigation (usually when followed by “into”). The corresponding noun is enquiry or inquiry.

Either spelling can be used, but many people prefer enquire and enquiry for the general sense of “ask”, and inquire and inquiry for a formal investigation:

  • I enquired his name
  • The first enquiry in my inbox today was about lost property.
  • We are going to inquire into the incident.
  • The lawyers asked when the inquiry will be completed.

In practice, enquire and enquiry are more common in British English, and inquire and inquiry are more common in US English, for both informal questions and formal investigations. However, the Guardian (a British newspaper) tells writers to “use inquiry and the Oxford English Dictionary seems to recognise inquire as the more dominant form, deeming enquiry:

Thanks Pedro, interesting. Think I prefer Stewards Inquiry for racing, enquiry for asking about something.

Peter (f) 2.99
Ken (9) 2.36
Pedro (f) n/s
