    Complement as in “Hey nice guns.” Not add to them.

      That’s “compliment.” @SpaceNoodle was subtly criticizing the misspelling.

        In US English, a, e, and i can usually be substituted for one another. Sometimes o as well.

          “Compliment” and “complement” are two different words. Sorry, but you don’t get to change that particular spelling if you want to be understood.

          And frequently, doing so changes the meaning entirely.

            If it’s false, how come it’s true for so much of what’s posted online?

      Condiment as in “Hey nice guns.” Not saucing them.
