English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar."

way to compare a noun and a verb... moron
but I will say this... it WAS originally tyre, but was changed to tire. but since you british fucks can't cope with living in the now, you ressurected 'tyre'. probably why you still have kings and queens and princes and shit.. living in a fairytale.

Yeah, but it's kinda funny that they used to spell it the same way then changed it, and now say we are wrong when we spell it the same way they used to. And what's the deal with taking a word ending in a vowel and adding an 'r' sound at the end? There's no fucking r on those words.

We never ressurected tyre, it's always been that way. The correct way. We can't help it if you yank simpletons need one spelling for two meanings because you were never capable of abosrbing the complete english alphabet
Fucking A dude!

That's regional dialect. Try visiting states other than Texas sometime, and you'll see the same thing all over here.
