Spelling mistake in this text disparaîtront missing accent.

"et les odeurs disparaitront comme par magie !" 

I'm petty sure this should be disparaîtront, please can this be corrected ?

Thanks

Bonjour Paul,

It is not a spelling mistake; both disparaitront and disparaîtront are accepted.

The rules on using the circumflex accent were changed in 1990.

Please take a look at a similar question on the use of the circumflex -

Bonne Continuation !
