Morrowind has a typo missing a W. It should be Morrowwind

Myyth✭✭✭✭✭Although...
(see what I did there?)
Rouven left out the next part of the explanationThe name is a Nordic buggering of the official Dunmeris Mora Vvynth
Mora Vvynth is most definitely not English. Which is the correct way the region got the name?
And if it is Morrow-wind, this is called a portmanteau, and thus is fine/grammatically correct as Morrowind with only one W.
Hmmm
ok yes, if its based off Mora Vvynth then I guess you have a point
But a Nordic buggering of the name doesnt sound very good and it looks like a W is missing.
Morrowwind looks nicer!

And on that note...........
"Morrowind" and Vvardenfell" are Chimer aka Dunmer language. Case closed.

I guess since your a Dwemer Paleologist you must know what your talking about.
But even if there are lore reasons for Morrowwind to only have one W, I still think it looks much nice with two W's!
Morrowwind!
see?

SaRuZ✭✭✭✭✭We play in a world with dragons, magic, creatures, malevolent entities that manipulate mortals with hordes of demonic immortals in their ranks, silent far off forces of light and good that only appear to thwart evil or choose a destined one. Lion's that stand upright and speak in the third person, a blood thirsty beast is reduced to sniveling cowards. Argonians.
Yet Morrowind not having two 'w's is what you can not bring yourself to fathom?1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Technically, it should be Morrowwind.
But Morrowind with one "w" looks much nicer as a name. It's kind of like how the word "already" came from "all" and "ready" and dropped the extra "L" when it got squished into one word.2 -

No, for 15 years it has been "Morrowind". 2 "w's" just looks wrong.
