Sometimes you read a post and you think this person is using English as a second language.  Well, it's the spell correct or whatever you want to call it.  I just wrote the word like and it came out link.  So all those typos you see in my posts are not me.  Of course we all could do a better job of proof-reading.

Autocorrect and typos are real.  That is why we should be careful.  I've been guilty too.

I proofread more than once.

 

But I swear that just before I hit the 'post' button, the words change by themselves!👿😂

That's why posters that police the boards, and correct other posters should stop. Who cares if there is a word misspelled.

Some people dictate their posts and an app converts their speaking to written text.  This can result in a mess if the person doesn't go back to edit and correct what the computer's written.

LOL!  I agree!

 

 

 

My kids keep telling me to stop fussing over typos....'their' generation does not obsess over correcting.

 

People KNOW what you mean and it is an 'old' thing to keep proofreading.

 

I do it anyways...LOL

Exactly.  To all of what you said.

 

They don't obsess over it, but oftentimes I don't understand what they're saying!


(And I had to go back and correct autocorrect on this post!😖)
