If a course were to be lead (pronounced LED) by a tutor, would it be Tutor-Lead or Tutor-Led

Mr Rex, this one is for you

 

[Andreas Rex]

People use both, as far as i can tell from my search. I'm leaning towards Tutor-led tho..

 

[cookie_monster]

tutor-lead

 

[jimbob23]

tutor-lehdd

Why so? I though LED was a Light Emitting Diode used in Japanese imports to light the undersides in a bright wash of green...

 

[UltraSBM]

...plus I'm pretty sure tutor-led is American...hence why would shouldn't use it

I'm geared towards tutor-lead...just bear in mind David's a hoe bag and doesn't know the difference between a 90nm silicon wafer and a bag of pretzels!

Just imagine a freakishly tall monkey, with an extreme attention span problem and a complete inability to do anything right

As in 'that geezer's a bit of a David'?

 

[UltraSBM]

yep! it is only marginally worse than being called a slumbytch

anyway - tutor-lead

 

[rich upsetter]

a bit like 'kevin'? or 'kev'? thats what we used to call 'chavs' until chav became the word of choice to describe 'them'.

You can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead.

 

[db]

the past participle of "lead" is "led", so the correct answer would be "tutor-led".. hyphenation is very ugly, though; there are much better ways to convey the same message..

and i dunno who gave you that title, ultrasbm, but you most certainly aren't the official 2520th poster! rich upsetter is
