Can i say "quest it" (imperative)?

[Tdol]

When you say "odd" do you mean "wrong" and "not appealing"? Or may "quest it" have some chance to sound "archaic", "adventurous" or "intriguing"?

I can't say that I would make those associations; I think JMurray's suggestion does more of that as quest has some of those associations already- the Questing Beast in King Arthur, for example. Quest it is not a natural usage and, while it might work, risks being seen as an error or oddity rather than a creative usage IMO.

It sounds no odder than many another web name, including the very useful fraze.it site. You could employ that eye-catching trick of using phonetic spelling by calling your site kwest.it.

phrase -> fraze
quest -> kwest

Interesting tricks. How do you call this kind of transformations? In italian we can't do them, because when you change the letters, you change the sound also.

PS: fraze.it is fantastic

I really don't know. If I had to name them, I'd have to coin something like 'heteronymous homophones', or 'orthographically distinct homophones! But normally we just call it spelling.
