Question

Can someone please explain the difference(s) between the words "entitle" and "intitle"?

Answer 1

Entitle means that your qualified to get or do something. Intitle isn't a word while Intitule means to give some one a title like mayor or duchess or something.

Answer 2

Yeah. The second one isn't English.

Answer 3

Most dictionaries that I've searched reference 'entitle' under the definition of 'intitle'

I would think they are fundamentally the same.

Answer 4

second isnt a word -using an 'in' makes it the opposite. The word is Entitle

Answer 5

'Intitle' is an obsolete spelling of 'entitle'.
