It’s ‘shoo-in,’ not ‘shoe-in.’
It’s ‘case in point,’ not ‘case and point.’
It’s ‘moot point,’ not ‘mute point.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘jibe with,' not 'jive with.'

In Welsh folklore, the Black Wyrm of the Barrow was a huge serpent who lived in a labyrinthine barrow. As a barrow is a pagan tomb, some scholars assume the Wyrm was inspired by a pagan god. It was slain by Peredur (Sir Percival), one of King Arthur's most Christian warriors.
