Captain_Zone Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Canon: Something that is taken as True in a given situation/story. Different Levels of Canon: George Lucas's thing. Cannon: Weapon first built in ancient China; Large Portable Gun usually mounted onboard a ship or on inland battlements. Can also refer to any number of large field artillery pieces or hand-held weapons. In Star Wars, Canon is what is true in the Star Wars Universe. Cannon is what the Commando carries into battle. Now, maybe the misspellings will stop.... Yeah, not likely, but we can always hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though something like canon can be chalked up to a simple typo, it's when people spell stuff like Vader or Windu wrong multiple times in a post that really makes me cringe.

GymQuirk Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Would it be going too far to rant about the difference between "its" (third-person neuter possessive) vs. "It's" (contraction of "it is" or "it has")? How about to/too/two? There/their/they're? You're/your/yore? Sight/site/cite? And let's not get started about people who think "should've" == "should of"...

Ellvaan Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Greetings everyone! We appreciate the attempt to clear up any misunderstandings regarding the differences between Star Wars lore and weaponry. As that has been explained sufficiently, we are going to go ahead and close this thread! Feel free to make a thread discussing the canon of cannons in Star Wars lore if you wish!
