  9. I'm not that fussed TBH (plus English is my second language so I probably make quite a lot of mistakes too). At the end of the day human brain only needs the first and last letter to be correct - you can mess up the rest (including replacing letters with digits) and it's still perfectly readable although it may take a moment to get used to.
    What is driving me nuts though is using capital letters for no reason or writing everything in caps. Luckily it's not common on this forum :smile:
     
  10. What does trouble me is we have the above ability to read the word's as correct if the first & last letter is correct even if the sentence looks as though it was written in Polish? :smile:

  16. It doesn't worry me that much.

    What gets my goat are the posts that have no punctuation at all, written in entire paragraphs with no breaks, like something out of an illiterate Ulysses.

    Fortunately those ones are quite (should maybe have written "quiet") far and few between. Text speak pisses me off too, but the age of posters on this forum seems to be so biblical that no one uses it. Cool!
     
  17. I blame my auto correct !
    It keeps saying nibbles and came up with bejeezus !! Where did it get that from?

    I have to say I let it go ..
    I type as I talk mainly crap .. :)
     
  18. "Bejeezus" is a brilliant word!

    I'd be proud of Apple if I found that recognised in my iPhone!
