Thread: My Spelling

  1. It seems like you make one small mistake, either missing a letter, putting one letter too many or switch one letter around so it just looks really weird. I just pass it off as a typo whenever I notice it now.

    For example, "channle" instead of channel, "horriable" for horrible, "deapeast" for deepest. Okay, you butchered the shit out of that last one .

    I won't get better if you don't call me on it. So if you see something, post it here.

  4. I always think about it, but I don't wanna seem like a tool about it. I've just accepted your shitty spelling as part of how you post. You're not as bad as you used to be.

    I think that's due to a little "tough spelling love" on IRC.

    Well, you guys did get me to start using the word "an" before words that start with a vowel. You also got me to start typing Minute correctly. Ever time I use the word I think of how gay it is that it is spelled like MyNute.

    I don't pronounce it MyNute, though. More like "minnit."

    As far as contractions go, maybe you should write things out first, THEN contract them until you get the hang of it. Like, if you want to say "You're a douchebag," you can start out with "You are a douchebag." Then you can see that the apostrophe is replacing the a from "you are" to make "you're" (and not "your," which has nothing to do with anything).

    And while we're on the subject of contractions, know that "should of" or "could of" don't exist. They don't mean anything. It's actually supposed to be "should have" ("could have") contracted into "should've" ("could've") which sounds like "should of" ("could've"). Never, ever write that again.

    You know, I saw this mean-sounding post, saw the Futurama avatar, and assumed it was Andrew. Imagine my surprise when I realized it was you.

    No one will ever take you seriously if you can't spell. This has been the case throughout the history of all written languages. This has nothing to do with how well you did in grammar class and everything to do with how much you think of your own writing to take the time to make sure it's correct and concise. Mistakes were acceptable during the typewriter days, but now with an easy to use backspace key and readily accessible online dictionaries and spell checkers, you're just a lazy douche if you can't get it right.
