Stripy or stripey anyone ?

Whisky is Scottish and Whiskey is Irish.

Whisky or whiskey?

I’d go for stripey. Otherwise it looks like strippy.

Occasionally watch Gemporia and TJC and have seen both ‘smokey quartz’ and ‘smoky quartz’ items. I’d use the ‘e’ myself.

In UK English spelling 'stripey' is 'correct'. (My US spellcheck doesn't like it, though. ? ) Though, TBH, 'stripy' is phonetically correct too.

Actually, my spellcheck doesn't like either version, neither are in its dictionary. Which makes me realise that the more usual adjective is 'striped'

Definitely stripey

My Shorter Oxford Dictionary gives a-wry (and compares it with aright, as in did I hear you aright?) and stripy.

stripey, circley, checkey.
striped, spotted, checked.
just buy plain socks

Oh no. I write nosey as well !

I would say stripey out loud but no idea how it should be written...

Striped? lol

I kind of thought that was the 'rule'.
Icy, nosy, and stripy.

..."simply" is an adverb.

To make an adjective from words ending in e just drop the e and add the y.
Icy, Spicy, Nosy, Stripy. .....simply!

Not a clue yggdrasil ! ?
My grandchildren came home with a free book from nursery . We love books but the tale of the stripey sock left me cold.

Thanks everyone. I’m going to stick with the e version.

awry Bathsheba is correct

yggdrasil I knew I'd heard of Stripey before somewhere.
You must have a better memory than me!

Stripey was the zebra who lived on Timothy's shelf along with
Woeful the monkey, Getup the giraffe, Gumpa the bear and Little Mut.

Anyone know what I am talking about :-)

I notice people pronouncing "awry" as "a -wry".

I was taught and the dictionary agrees that it is "awe-ry"

I don't understand that. Why would you pronounce it 'awe-ry'? The word is nothing to do with awe, as in wonder. It comes from the word 'wry' which means crooked or skewed. It should be pronounced a-wry.

I have always written stripey both of socks and cats.

I suspect stripy is American usage, but don't know for sure.
