-- "Ladies turn the Page" on vancouver.24hrs.ca on February 26, 2009
I thought inger on the homepage was a small but oh-so-visible oversight, but then I clicked "Full Story" and saw it again. Interestingly, dictionary.com's definition of "inger" is:
noun
a member of western Finnish people formerly living in the Baltic province where Saint Petersburg was built [syn: Ingrian]
Maybe it's not an error, and Page has hidden his Finnish heritage from millions of Canadians for years. But if the writer did intend to write inger, why is it not capitalized? I think that the writer was attempting to writer Singer.
