I'm disappointed the term "roguelike-like" didn't catch on for the games that aren't turn-based dungeon crawlers but still have very roguelike feels (e.g. Spelunky and FTL); it's descriptive and ridiculous! The term has expanded in use since the Berlin interpretation was written
English spelling is messed up because of the Great Vowel Shift (wiki) and our enthusiasm for borrowing foreign words without anglicising the spelling. Most of the current spellings do accurately reflect a words pronunciation, silent letters and all, but in another time or place.
