What bugs me all the words that get shortened likes of skool how are the kids going learn spelling when all around them they are miss spelled words in advertising bill boards and the likes.
I was always terrible at spelling. The last 5 years posting on the internet has got me to the point where I now normally post without spell checking. Another 2 years should get my grammar somewhere near acceptable. I'm 50 this year so it's not just the young ones.
First they have to invent a program that can spell check and invert phone txt language like ttyl.
Then with all known variables then add a good grammatical check (for me). Because as long as language evolves you will always facing this daunting task of interpretation.
I don't spell check either, but I think I'm pretty good at it when I bother to. Grammar is more important anyways. THat's why I don't like spelling Bs. I think the focus should be on grammar. What's the point of knowing a bunch of really big, strange words that are never used if you can't even string words together?
I NEED spell check. Of all the things in this world i can do, spelling is not one of them. As a matter of fact, my spelling abilities have deteriorated over the past years. It is rather unexplainable. Oh well. I am a geek, and i am not ashamed!
EDIT: I never noticed that spelling error! Good eye! Maybe it was put there intentionally, and now you are going to get a very large sum of money for reporting it (being the first person)!
