Off topic, I didn't know the spelling "faire", and didn't come across having lived almost a decade in the US. My dictionary just says "obsolete spelling of fair". Does it carry a slightly different meaning? Why this obsolete choice?
- ju-st 11y agoIt's just their branding, I think: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maker_Faire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maker_Faire.
- tmuir 11y agoPerhaps it allows them to trademark the name?
- bryanlarsen 11y agoRenaissance faires use the renaissance spelling. Maker faire is perhaps trying to evoke those.
