- simonw 2y agoThat was a very dumb typo in my title!
- neom 2y agoI figured as much, although I wondered if you were going for the kinda "he learn out about not pissing people off real sharpish" kinda tone I've heard in Scotland before, but wasn't sure. Big fan btw, happy new years Simon! :)
- user982 2y agoYou can find out, you can learn about, but you can't learn out about.
- mjburgess 2y agoGood ear -- the use of 'out' as an abbreviation of anything is a britishism. Nowt, owt, -- nothing, anything
- CRConrad 2y agoNaught, aught.
- slyall 2y agoAustralians or Brits would tend so day "learnt" rather than "learned"
