"The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain"

"The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain"

Unfortunately, Spanish rain does not actually stay mainly in the plain. It falls mainly in the northern mountains.

Which is it - piece or peace

> When it comes to areas that flood, is it Flood PLAIN or Flood PLANE? I have puzzled over this and when I look up definitions of the words I can make either one work.
>
> One time I even went to the FEMA site and found both.
>
> So what is your opinion and your logic (or illogic)?

Dave...

Then I won't even ask if it's "I've said my piece" -OR- "I've said my peace"
