the spelling and grammar police should pull their collective heads in..... we have 2 autistic children...whether they can spell or punctuate properly or not, is really quite unimportant...they have issues enough to deal with (as have we)..........just saying.

Freya, while I agree totally to what your saying, criticising someone due to spelling is bad form, I have to admit if I read a profile that is full of bad spelling I will just turn away. Even more so when its someone saying they are a 'professional' with regards to their job and they can barely spell correctly. An error here and there, not a problem, I do it myself I get lazy and dont check or i am posting at odd times like 2am in the morning and not paying attention, we all do it at some time. BUT with that said, adults who know they lack in their spelling ability, can use spell check on the computer before hitting enter on many things. A profile is not hard to do in a word document to check spelling and past into a profile. Maybe more a chore in something like a forum to do a spell check, but its still not that hard to do a spell check. I dont condone any type of bullying, even if its being negative to someones spelling and demeaning them, but there is easy ways around fixing this problem. I had a dyslexic partner years ago, used to read him the newspaper and help him with many basic things with literacy, so I do sympathise.

without google chrome auto correct u would all be amiss trying to decode my messages funny enough though ability to spell has no correlation with IQ with certain evidence suggesting that higher many IQ individuals are actually worse with their spell, i don't know if that's true or not but i'm one case that supports it mine is 122 at last check & my spelling sucks balls the moral of the story is just because someone may not be able to spell all that well does not mean they're idiots, they may well just be a hell of alot smarter than urself & just try not to show off by trying to explain string theory or why it's puzzling that gravity is such a relatively weak force compared to electromagnetism, strong & weak nuclear forces

However i believe most here would not begrudge the fact you are unable to spell.But really it is laziness not education!While i understand that some have difficulties, there is such a thing as "Spell Check" and even this forum puts up a red squiggly line under your miss spelled word!Problem i see, is sum ppl cldnt b stuffed spell checking, or even worsethey speek tex lenguage!Not really all that difficult to get it right with today's technology......is it?

Thanks Freya, i understand your view and I have obviously let my halo slip because I sid ask those who speak bingo (m8, b4) not to contact me 😔. Feeling soundly but lovingly spanked. I volunteer to a foundation which helps kids in fostercare with learning difficulties to read. I love it when one of my charges comes back with a story and they use good grammar and start attempting some big words in thier sentences. Hell we all make spelling mistakes!! I'm so open-minded with the kids, obviously I need to extend that same consideration to folks on RHP. Thank you for the eye-opener. Safari

That's what wrong with education, its too easy to pat the student on the head and say to them its ok not to try harder. I am not referring to those people/children with developmental problems, but basic spelling is essential for the greater population. Why should I not voice my opinion when in the vast majority of cases, it is sheer laziness not not write or spell correctly.Have you seen some of the posts here that are almost incomprehensible due to the person using phone text spelling? It's appalling! And how many times have people posted on those threads asking the OP what the question was? I recall once after correcting the grammar my son was using, he turned to me and asked why I spoke the way I do (example - in the subject title above, I used 'nope' instead of 'no') and my answer to him was because I had learnt to spell and speak correctly I can bastardise the language. When his ability was the same as mine, then he could too. 100% of people posting on the forums here do so with some form of computer, and all of those devices have access to spell check in one form or another, use them! So it may take a bit more effort, big deal, perhaps that is what is lacking these days, a bit more effort across the board. I should also say, that comprehension is a large part of spelling ability, and I believe that this may be where the problem is. The difference between 'where', 'wear', 'we're' or 'there' and 'their' are common errors, spelt correctly, but used incorrectly, and understanding the difference is all that's needed is for that light bulb to come on and the problem is gone.I make no apology for continuing to hold people accountable for their spelling and grammar. It is the very basis of our communication, and so is vitally important. If you have no wish to live in a society that requires you to be able to communicate in a written language, then I'm sure you could find a lost tribe somewhere who don't have the same requirements.Viking

@freya This is a good idea. Though I will stand by my "Please read your post before you click". Much of the "tricky" stuff here is just people emptying their heads though their keyboards and then not checking the stream of consciousness.I actually think many people don't post because they think what they have to say is not worthy? To them I say "Go and check some random Facebook feeds". ~laughs~

Who cares if someone makes a spelling mistake. Too many ppl on here sprout over those who might battle over a few words.. Do the accusers thinks him/her self as a superior being just because they have a knack of stinging a few sentences together better than someone else.. ? I know ppl who are excellent at the written word , but as dull as batshit. All I can say is.... Pull ur head in and get a life...

Of course I notice incorrect grammar and spelling errors... it is my job to, but I am no more interested in pointing them out to people in my private life, than I am in jumping into a fire. I like to relax when I am not working, not continue working. Most guys seem to worry about their spelling and grammar when they find out my job and I have lost count of how many I have told that it just does not bother me in my private life. As I also work with children with disabilities and learning difficulties and have a son who couldn't spell to save himself, but who is highly intelligent, I definitely understand about not being super critical. Many people are dealing with unknown difficulties, so we all should learn to accept them for who they are and enjoy what they add to our lives without constantly nitpicking.If we were all the same in ur abilities what a boring place our world would be.

They may actually be trying their hardest to get an opinion up on here .. heaven knows this can often be a hostile ground to play on. What really matters is the character of the person, are they decent, do they care about their fellow rhpers. Chances are if they do .. they have my vote. Sassyme x

in this country with many people leaving school not just being unable to spell but being functionally illiterate.Viking Bitch, oh how I wish I had a magic wand to wave to fix it.I am not here defending the lazy but I am defending those for whom the difference between where,wear ,there,their,etc will always be a mystery.The sad thing is that there are computer based learning programs such as Lexia which can assist many kids but are not factored into most schools budgets.Mentoring and one to one support can also help. Many people who struggle wiith literacy have quite low self esteem and because it IS such an important part of every day life ,they experience failure every day.Mr.MilkChoc,thank you for your terrific post,I wish I had a grasp on string theory. The English language is constantly evolving,whether we like it or not,OMG can now be found in the Oxford Dictionary,txt speak will become more the norm,I am not saying I like it but it is a reality. Before Samuel Johnson created his first lexicon there was no correct way to spell,the English language was spelt phonetically up until then,The Dictionary of English was published in 1755. I am passionate about words,in fact I LOVE THEM,I love reading and writing them,I would much rather read an insightful or funny or sexy post with heaps of speeling errors ,than a perfectly spelt ,prosy ,boring one. I hope that many more forum readers will be encouraged to post,knowing that they wont get shot down in flames or that if they do,there are people here to support them.x R.....probably stands for rant today.

How do we tell the difference between lazy, uneducated and a disability? Having been someone who's guilty of taking preference to chat to people who spell properly and use punctuation has got me thinking.......maybe I'm the lazy one for preferring the easy messages to those that take a little time and effort to work out. One of my children has a mild intellectual disability where he has a stutter and has limited literacy skills. I consider us to be very lucky. He could have ended up with a more profound disability, or worse, as he wasn't breathing when he was born. In my work I often deal with kids who didn't complete year 12. A couple of them didn't even get past Year 7. So they come before me as Early School Leavers. I work in job services but, as the government has decided that anyone on Youth Allowance who did not complete Year 12 has to either return to school or complete studies at a minimum of Certificate 2 level with a minimum of 25 contact hours per week or they lose their Centrelink benefits. Most of these kids left school for a reason and a lot of them have huge barriers. So, why isn't there more concentration in finding out why these kids are dropping out of school and putting money into fixing that rather than forcing them back into an environment they don't want to be in. So, who are we to judge when we know very little about what really lies behind each of us who have put these words on a screen and left our mark this way? Rant over.

Heartbreaking, and frustrating. What concerns me is the somewhat general acceptancefrom various people that spelling just isn't important.Yeah, sure everyone makes mistakes, but if your an able mindedand bodied person, to say who gives a rats about spelling smacksof lazyness and lack of attention to detail. Do you conduct yourselflike that in all areas of your life.One should always strive to do their best in my opinion.Cheers Felonious

I feel it's as relevant as anywhere where you wish to put your thoughts out there in the public sphere.Otherwise we might as well just write in text speak.Like it or not every time we post, whether it be here or inthe Australian or where ever else, we put ourselves on display,rightly or wrongly we will be judged, on our ideas and our abilityto put those ideas across to a wider audience. Spelling is a keycomponent to conveying those messages.Spelling is like anything else, unless you have some limiting factorit can be learnt, don't use spell checkers, actually look it up and bitby bit, and with practice it will come, reading is also a usefull tool Ireckon.Cheers Felonious

Unfortunatey Spell check will only give you the correct spelling of the word it thinks you typed. People who have difficulty with spelling might not choose the correct word. A person needs to have a certain sized oral vocabulary and an ability to read in order to master spelling. I value correct grammar and spelling, but I do not feel my private life should be weighed down by correcting others about whom I have no knowledge. I have been tutoring a young lad most of this year. Like most students who are failing he felt he was stupid/dumb. I have focussed on increasing his vocabulary and his reading ability and done very little about his spelling; except to cover what he has to do for homework, make sure he understands the meaning of the word and point out possible ways to remember how to spell those words. I have constantly pointed out to him what he is very good at, the improvements he is making and praised him for trying. The good news is his self esteem has grown, his reading has improved greatly and so has his spelling ability. The last thing he needed was for me to spend ages simply trying to teach him spelling

dear me. good spelling comes down to a good education and good memory skills, so far as I can see.My spelling is average, my grammar is appalling,that saidif someone does not know how to spell, but they know the word in the mind...do they have any less right to voice their opinion ?is their opinion any less valid ?are you a better person because you can spell ?The times they are a changing. The world is getting smaller and people who once you would never, or they would never have thought would use a computer, are.Id someone moves to Australia from a tiny dirt spec in the middle of some desert with no water or education.. are they not allowed to voice their thoughts?People who jump up an down about spelling are truly thoughtless idiots.( and I used spell check in google about 14 times in this post)

Wow. Maybe it is my high IQ, low EQ and my inability to spell that allows my brain to read words written backwards, forwards, with jumbled letters and so on. Or maybe its not my high IQ but something that most of the population has the ability to do. If we have established that most are quite capable of reading and understanding the written word in these various forms then we could surmise that those who have an issue with it are indeed lazy themselves, to lazy to allow their brain to do its job and move on. Which is exactly why the brain can do this, its unimportant so it deciphers what is seen and then moves on. Given the 100's of languages spoken around the world, Afrikaans itself has some 10+ dialects, the English language, spelling and grammar could really be considered an antiquated form of communicating because you have a limited audience from the start. There are almost 7 billion people in the world and less than 1 billion speak/read/write English.

I have to admit, my grammar probably isnt the greatest, and some people just go overboard on the 'improper' English that is written and spoken.now we have a whole new language of texting which REALLY butchers thingsEven in the states, they tried to push 'ebonics', to justify rap speech as an official language.I have been around the world, and have found that only the ENGLISH speak English.Australians speak Australian.I speak American.Helping people with grammar problems is one thing, getting down on them for it is another.My daughter was deaf until she was nine years old, so she was behind in school, and had a bad speech impediment where kids teased her to the point where we pulled her out of school and home schooled her.She never graduated high school.Now, she is manager of the produce department of a large grocery chain in the states, and writes sci-fi fantasy books.So much for her not being able to speak and write proper English.proud of her

I guess it comes down to what people, or ppl, think is important. If someone has genuine issues/problems with spelling that is one thing,knowing about it can be another. But for me I think they only represent a small percentage of people, the rest are either lazy or have had issues with their education and both can be tracked back to school for the most part. Nowadays in a lot of schools the teachers are not allowed,aloud, to chastise or correct children when they make a mistake and this is leading to problems later in life. They are however stopping children from experiencing a lot of the fun and social interaction that's important,or at least used to be. An example of this is that a child at a local primary school near where I live was sent home and suspended recently. The crime committed I hear you ask. It turns out that this girl upon returning to school from the holidays committed the heinous crime of giving her friend a hug when she saw her in the playground before class. I've also been at the checkout in my local supermarket and when the bill has come to $13.50 I've given them $15 and a 50c coin. Now cause they've seen the $15 and rung that through they then couldn't do the math in their head to work out that I had to be given $2 back. I know that I try not to pre-judge people but I also know that when I look at a profile or post and there is spelling mistakes and or text speak all over the place then I can't help thinking, what the hell is going on. Especially with those using text speak, I mean it's not like we get charged per character for anything we post is it? Just because I can read words that are all jumbled up doesn't mean I want too either. No doubt I've made a mistake or two in my post and probably on my profile,not a cue to check it out, but both will be a long way from the gobbledygook of some with no regard or care for spelling and punctuation. Ad as someone else pointed out previously, I don't "want to eat grandma".

and then there is the fact, a language spoken or writtten will change and changed over the years. Have a look at books written years ago. And come one I learn the written language because the words are like pictures in my mind. And how confusing when you read books from different englih speaking countries? Your mind gets confused which is the right spelling and which is the wrong one. Yes we can use the spellingcheck....and even this bloody think can be wrong, because it only gets it right when the word is in a sentence and doesnt stand alone. Ohh my and then for people like me. Jesus you use words spoken in english, the single letters in the written word you cant even hear......how confusing is that? How can you spell it when you cant hear the letters?

I'm not perfect and so I don't critise others no matter how bad the mistakes, I just think it's sad that somebody may have something to say that's relevant to me but the point is lost in the mumbo jumbo they have used to express it. p.s.

Thanks Freya13 for that Lovely story:) Well I'm 1 of the guilty ones .At times I do use incorrect spelling or grammar However Personally although it tends to frustrate the Hell out of me at times .It's not my main focus.The Topic at hand is. I enjoy sharing my views, some may agree or not with my thoughts.. However as much as I love the use or words I embrace those who can Personally give and share with others in their lives through actions. Unfortunately written words are changing as they have before in our evolving History to suit the times we live in. We see it every day with text SMSs so on..It's practicle but it loses something in the trsanslation..that saddens me because I love the Melodic tones and energies of words.. In closing If you have something to share on any given topic .Please reply so we can enjoy the value of your views and possibly gain insight , tolerance of others and so much more. Don't be overly concerned if you're not a good speller . It doesn't really matter. We can either get the gist of what you share, take the time to try and work it out, or bypass it all together.. Enjoy Lu :)

I sympathise with those who have a problem such as dyslexia, but it isn't hard to use spellcheck to eliminate most of the mistakes. I find it annoying to have to constantly translate textspeak or bad spelling. I get through a paragraph and can't be bothered reading further. I will refrain from criticism but don't expect me to read the post.

Personally I feel a Persons substance , and views they wish to share to enhance my knowledge. op I'm guilty of poor spelling on occassion due to my arm hitting my breast and bouncing oiff when I'm typing my finger hits the wrong key or 2 at once.. I recheck uit but sometimes my finger clicks send before I've finished..Haaaaaaaa! Enjoy Lu :)

There has been a huge shift in attitude here, towards people who struggle with spelling. Dyslexia and other conditions can be crippling to someones self esteem and learning capacity.Thank you forumites,Hugs x R
