    Captial letters arctic / antarctic

    Comment
    The dictionary spells the Antarctic with a capital letter but not the artic. That does not make sense to me. Best regards

    In my dictionary the Arctic (the large area of land surrounding the North Pole) is spelt with a capital letter, as is the Antarctic, of course. You probably mean the adjective arctic (1. connected with or from the most northern part of the world; 2. extremely cold). This is indeed not spelt with a capital letter. To me all of this makes perfect sense. :)

    It also makes sense to me, but it is spelt wrong in the LEO database,
    Thanks,
    Robert

    oh, yes, you're right, Robert. LEO should change this entry!
