8. forfeit

Forfeit provides another example, like been, of a situation where multiple alternative spellings [forfait(e), forfet, and forfeit(e)] were available to B. In this instance, he displays a double preference for forfet and forfeit(e) and completely rejects the third alternative. At the same time, he fails to display any single clear-cut preference for either of the two forms which he does use.
