Yes, I've noticed it too, and it's really pathetic. I wonder if people are just too lazy to spell correctly. It's not only spelling, but grammar and punctuation that have become a lost art. I believe a lot of it is due to the abbreviated communications that have become so popular on the internet. "R U LOL" for example, instead of asking, "Are you laughing out loud?" And though I hate to think about it, but perhaps the educational standards are not what they were when I went to school. Is there less emphasis placed on proper usage of the English language, or are the students simply unwilling to learn it?

Regardless of the reason, unless one is able to communicate clearly in writing, the chances for success in the work force will be severely limited, as will the resultant salaries. One doesn't have to speak or write like a college professor, but should have a basic knowledge of the language, and know how to communicate clearly.

I wish I knew all the answers, but I don't. All I know is, I hope the trend will reverse, and that proper English will keep pace with modern technology and scientific advancement. Even in these progressive fields, good English and correct spelling should not be a lost art, but a fine art.

Ha! Technically Jesus is the Son of God yet in addition stated himself with the aid of asserting ''before Abraham replace into , i'm.'' That sounds cryptic and powerful and thrill upsetting. Jesus has a mom named Mary , to whom the promise replace into on condition that her offspring could stomp the serpent's head. Now this could communicate of a literal serpent or the suggestions of the Beast. Jesus is the step dad. i'm hoping that explains it. Joseph genuinely occupied an significant place in background . He raised the infant Jesus. He taught him to construct . you may think of of this the way you want. . God could be coaching some thing approximately absolutes . because of the fact of this Christianity is plenty like happening the rabbit hollow. you may circulate this variety .. or you may circulate that way. as long as you have an pastime in understanding God , you would understand Him.

Yup, especially when there's a spell check feature right in front of them. But, then, they also don't know much about grammar, punctuation, or typing either.

Well I am the other 10 % ! I don't think that they can't spell I think they just type fast and don't proof read before submitting their answer.
