Discluded? Are you sure you don't mean excounted?
No, discounted
oh nice, 20% off
Must be hard to understand these terms as an American I guess.
It's just very rare, the Oxford English Dictionary claims that it is 400 times less common than 'excluded'. I would expect many Brits and other native speakers to get confused or at least slow down when reading it too.
I actually meant it as a joke about tariffs and discounts, not to shame someone. My bad.
Oh, yeah that makes sense too.
Disclude: To exclude, not include, to remove from inclusion
Well it's not in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, but that's just one source. I assumed they meant "excluded" because I've never seen "discluded" used... Ever?
