Talk:cheif

RFV discussion: January–February 2019
Can we find evidence of this obsolete spelling? I see some which may be good or may be typos. I also see some French, maybe someone can add that. - TheDaveRoss  14:41, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It looks like a common misspelling to me. Kiwima (talk) 22:25, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * These seem like the real deal:    In the last two cases the texts are anthologies and contain many attestations of both "chief" and "cheif", but it looks like this depends on the original usage of the included documents. Many more attestations can be found in texts before 1800, but "cheif" isn't always the dominant spelling. ←₰-→  Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  08:15, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
