It was pointed out to yer 'umble scribes that the original Dog-Latin spelling 'Argumentum ad Membrum Porceri' (AMP), while conforming to the Roman alphabet, would belike have had its last word pronounced "pore cherry". We thus were persuaded to stray away from conforming to strictly authentycke Klassical orthography and substitute -k- for -c- because:
(a) -k- would give the hard /k/ sound, and
(b) it would remind our readers of the KK form of faux-Kornish for which the 'AMP' aka Dathel Tosen an Torgh was coined.
Apologies for this orthographical confusion; we can only plead we were influenced by the current Cornish zeitgeist.
