In lib/equine.rb
solution branch for module Ridable
.
@raq929 requested a note be made to potentially change the module Ridable
to module Rideable
. It appears both are correct but Rideable
is less likely to be misinterpreted as having the root word rid
and implying the module has something to do with getting rid of something.
M-W defines rideable as "variant of RIDABLE," obliquely suggesting that, indeed, ridable is someone's preferred spelling.
The Oxford English Dictionary reverses that, defining ridable as "variant of RIDEABLE," suggesting that rideable may be the preferred spelling.
