Answer 1

correctly

Answer 2

I'm a translator and proofreader but I don't correct people on the net unless asked to because people that are not linguistically minded just don't care, it's a waste of time, and it just gets on their nerves. That said, poor grammar, spelling, and punctuation is disturbingly prevalent throughout the net, other people see it, and, knowing no better, copy it; and so the vicious circle goes on until poor English is the norm (if it's not already). I would have to quit my job to correct all the mistakes I see in a day's browsing: this page is full of mistakes (not including the intentional ones), as many from the preachers of good grammar as from the defenders of illiteracy; the lack or overuse of the apostrophe being the worst (Two Weeks' Notice or Two Weeks Notice? Yes, even Warner Bros get it wrong, so what hope for the rest of us?). And what can we do when even respected websites like the BBC are rife with mistakes? By the way, the spell check is useful but not perfect. I almost put "quite my job" because my fingers are always racing ahead typing common words before my brain reaches them to tell them what they should actually be typing. The spell check wouldn't have picked that up. It probably wouldn't pick up all poor punctuation either, e.g. the difference between it's and its. This site is actually not that bad compared to many forums I've seen, so perhaps some tolerance should be exercised.

Answer 3

Yes I am a reasonably good speller. I make a few spelling errors. But usually when I am emailing I make spelling errors because I was typing too fast. Not because I don't know how to spell the word. Spell checker is a good thing to use, although it too makes spelling mistakes. There are some words I often get confused on. And then I sometimes use spell checker or a dictionary.

Answer 4

yeah i will write a small piece of writitng

i am a teenager in my late teens 19 next year i was born where i live now and i have lived there all my life i have to jobs one as a glass collector and another which is an evening merchandiser at wilkinson in hull i might be leaving there soon because i am only temporary

any mistakes i made are probably because i am tired and it is 3:47 am in the uk enjoy being tested

i never use punctuation and capitals when i am typing online

Answer 5

I rarely use spell check unless I'm really unsure of a word that I'm typing, which rarely happens. I don't think I really need to use it because I never got into the text talk revolution, nor did I blab all the way through class in my earlier years at school.

Answer 6

Hey there Razzle!
Does that include punctuation? You're being quite the little punctuation-phone in your question so I'm a bit uncertain. Do you think that text-messaging is causing the proliferation of spelling errors or do you think that the spelling errors were always there and we're just exposed to so much more writing?
Wait a minute! I think I just asked questions too!

Answer 7

I can spell ok and I never use spell check unless I'm absolutely afraid that the word I wrote will make no sense whatsoever.

Answer 8

Um, yeah, I can spell correctly.
At least, I hope I can after 4 years of college and teaching reading and spelling to 6 year olds now...

Answer 9

Yes I can spell correctly. I don't have spell check on right now anyway...
