spell checker!

Post by Izopter »

I see spelling and grammar mistakes that shouldn't be, from a graduate profession.
Maybe you could run a spurious Dick Shonary section!

examples seen on brief explorations:

cheif for chief
sheild for shield -
easy : eyes before ears (work it out)
your for you're / your are
eye's for eyes (just plural, no belonging)
expence for expense
technitions for technicians

.or m i a pane in the buttt?

Sorry - it gets worse for you ! - so am I !!

OK, so I am a pain in the...

But some topics are more than difficult to read, because they carelessly or badly written, let alone spelt.
This means they just get ignored which defeats the whole point of these communications.

I like seeing spelling mistakes it makes me feel I'm not the only one who gets things a bit muddled when typing. I do try and check posts first though :lol:
