 In the General Options in WordPress admin, there is the following text:

   If you want your blog homepage to be different than the directory you
 installed WordPress in, enter that address here.

 This should read:

   If you want your blog homepage to be different from the directory you
 installed WordPress in, enter that address here.

 Here are some on-line docs that agree with my view:
  * http://www.jimloy.com/language/differen.htm
  * http://alt-usage-english.org/excerpts/fxdiffer.html
  * http://englishplus.com/grammar/00000202.htm

 Attached is a simple patch to correct this issue.
