There’s been an increase in spelling errors over a number of blogs and comments that I’ve come across recently. I’d like this to stop please.
One that I’ve noticed quite a lot is the word ‘definately’. Don’t you have spell-check? It’s ‘definitely’, with an ‘i’.
Class dismissed.

So someone spells a word or 2 incorrectly here and there.
Some dude once said, ” he who has never made a spelling mistake cast the first stone.”

I feel offended.
Ok not really, it takes a lot to offend me.
I am a post on the fly kinda blogger, if I had to read everything I typed… I would not have any time for real work.
So blow me.

Hmmm, well b2evolution’s spellchecker is shite, and people who rely on spellcheckers too much end up using “you’re” instead of “your” and things like that, so I just skim over a post before publishing and hope for the best.

Good on ya!

I save all my posts into Word anyways due to the unpredictable nature of Blogger to shut down while I’m posting so spelling comes with this practice.

I understand what you’re saying, yeah, defanatily! (See? You said it was with an ‘i’. Isn’t it beautifulll to see how quickly I learn?)

Yeah, I’m with the samurai wielding monkey on this – skim ‘n click.
Gareth bro, seriously, get ecto..!

All their spelling mistakes drive me up the wall. And then they want to be considered journalists! Our local press is already in such a state, just imagine what bloggers would do to it.

it‘s true that we all make mistakes (I‘m referring to typos )..typing. Some of us use all 10 fingers , some two and some just 1 ; However the probability of typing errors is pretty high no matter how good we are at the keyboard . Whe
