~ The X Lexicon ~

A dictionary for fanfic writers

 

The idea for this page came about as I was reading my fifth fanfic in as many days in which Alex Krycek's name was spelled K-R-Y-C-H-E-K. I was reminded of how many times I have seen other character/place names misspelled, and I decided I ought to DO something about it instead of sitting at my computer and grumbling. After all, these aren't things that a spell checker could catch, unless your word processing program was manufactured by the Lone Gunmen ;) So, here is the fruit of my labors; it's not complete at the moment, and includes some names that I have NEVER seen misspelled, but better safe than sorry. Pronunciations are included for hard-to-pronounce names, but I'm sure everyone knows how to say "Covarubiassssssssssssssssss", right? ;) Please note: definitions may contain spoilers for episodes up to season 5 and the Movie.
