Answer 1

Ode to my Spell Checker

I have a spelling checker.
It came with my pea sea.
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot sea.

Eye ran this poem threw it,
Your sure reel glad two no.
Its vary polished in it's weigh.
My checker tolled me sew.

A checker is a bless sing,
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when I rime.

Each frays come posed up on my screen
eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.

Bee fore a veiling checker's
Hour spelling mite decline,
And if we're lacks oar have a laps,
We wood bee maid too wine.

Butt now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flair,
Their are no fault's with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a ware.

Now spelling does knot phase me,
It does knot bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped word's fare as hear.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should be proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays,
Such soft wear four pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting too pleas.




this checks out fine on a spell check

Answer 2

By not using it & also because spell check is not perfect, I know that it hasn't caught a couple of my misspelled words. But I would say that 99% of the time it works great. But they're a lot of people out there that just don't care, so they don't use it! That is what I think, anyway!

Answer 3

Spell check doesn't always work. From personal experience, I know that some words aren't in there, or people add words to the dictionary in spell check. I think spell check can also be disabled sometimes (but i'm not sure). Also, when word checks grammar, it almost constantly messes up (I've gotten lower grades on school essays because I believed spell and grammer check).

Answer 4

It does seem a little silly, especially with the red squiggly lines in Microsoft Word.
One thing, though, is spell check doesn't really recognize context. If you type a word, it won't catch it. A lot of times, the wrong type of a word can be used, like "they're" "there" "their" , etc. All three are words, so spell check won't catch the wrong usage. :-)

Answer 5

Sometimes the spell check misses it. Or maybe they use a different form of the work and the spell check doesn't catch it. It happens to me sometimes. You can also set your computer so the spell check doesn't work.

Answer 6

so it makes you feel stupid if you use spell check so you go ahead and prove your stupidity by simply going ahead and misspelling the words. That is better?

Answer 7

This morning i grew to become into thoroughly shocked approximately this. that's exceedingly stupid. i do no longer likely attempt to misspell words, besides the fact that that's somewhat stressful while i'm no longer finished with writing something and it tells me that I certainly have written something incorrectly. Uh, I hate this new function.

Answer 8

Because not everyone uses the spell check. I don't, makes me feel stupid.


For the amount of money I put into my education I should be able to write without a machine telling me how its written.

Answer 9

I know people misuse words like: their/there, to/too, accept/except, effect/affect, etc.

Either that or they don’t use spell check. It’s always good to read out what you write because I have found out that you catch a lot of mistakes doing that.

Answer 10

some people use the wrong form of the word such as here, when they mean to say hear, and spell check doesnt know
