[Fixed] Spelling/language error in lamp descriptions

Recommended Posts

Lantern: [11:40:49] A small iron box with wicker and a cannister for oil.  

 

Candle: [11:46:18] A candle made from tallow repeatedly dipped around a cloth wicker.

 

Metal torch: [11:49:39] A finely bent metal sheet that will hold some oil and a wicker. 

 

In all cases, the word should be wick, not wicker. (Wick is the cotton string you light, wicker is the woven wood furniture.) Also, it's canister, with one n, unless that is a Uk vs US spelling issue. :)

The word order in the 2nd is awkward as well. 

 

Revision: A candle made from a wick that was repeatedly dipped in tallow.
