R u shur?

Our Right Honourable Prime Minister met with the United States President earlier this week. He wore a colourful tie. His family is living in a house on the Governor General's property because labour is fixing the Prime Minister's house.  The government uses cheques or EFT to pay the suppliers.

The "very good spell checker" claimed there are FIVE spelling errors in the previous paragraph.  All of those so-called errors are actually correctly spelled.

Thus, the spell checker does not know how to spell a wide range of commonly used words.

There was a time the spellchecker was down. Where were you when we needed you the most?

Spell check is great but proof reading is important too. It you spell the wrong word correctly then that word messes with the meaning.

 Not right now, thanks!

It also has several good spell WRECKERS like myself Peter Mohylsky 

LOLLLLLL
Watch what you wish for!

Yep I just need to be a little more consistent. As Joe Pryor  points out proofreading is important. You might spell everything correctly but it might not make sense, and using the wrong word (their vs. ther) won't get picked up. Wish they allowed us to add words to the dictionary

Stuff happens.  So do errors.   Thank you for the offer.  

Spell check catches some but not all. Nothing beats re-reading what you are typing before you post. The grammar police remind me of this often

I didn't... I hate spell checkers... I've found them to be incorrect. I prefer my own spelling and if I'm really stymied, I'll look it up.

Peter Mohylsky - yes, indeed. 

I also use Grammarly - premium edition.

I am no expert so I need all the tools....lol!

I use it 99% of the time. Then other times I dunt

Yes and I use it quite often!  Okay, so not ALL of the time but, most of the time!

Thank you Joe Pryor for a great comment..so true!!

Yes, thank you.

I know!  It is a great feature!  I almost used two eyes of newt in my last spell and it corrected me!  Thank God for that!  The love potion would have been disasterous!

Marc Swartz, CPA, CA, Real Estate Broker nailed this one!

Thanks Peter, you may have a very full weekend.

Thanks for the tip!  

I use it most of the time!

Good luck.

I also use Grammarly free version and find it helpful.

Yes, it is a great tool. But it only works if it is used. 

The gesture is noble....

Thanks for the offer!

I use Grammarly but still need to proofread. 

Peter,

Yes

It has a speel chexer? teely? Dats amazin tanks fur telen me :-)

I know I use the spell checker just to be sure, but some get past it.

Yes.

Yes, but it's not very good with correcting the misspelled words. 

Ha Ha! There are a few words that still trouble me. If I didn't use spell checker I would never catch them.

It reminds me my struggle with my iphone, it does spell check by changing the meaning:) 

I now their is won butt often forget to utilities it.

Use it often when I am fatigued or just awoke. It does help!

I see you hit the wit of some...

Thank you.  I do use the spell checker a lot ... not 100% of the time. It does correct words incorrectly.  

sounds good to me

I'm all set, thanks....

I spell check - or sometimes use a quick Google search to verify a spelling. Helps so much with credibility to have your words in your post/blog spelled correctly.

LOL! Love the responses!

Judging from some of the posts....I would guess few realize that ABC is not just the first letters of the alphabet !

If someone only knows ONE WAY to spell a word can not be so incredibly smart!

Peter Mohylsky Yes, I am aware this site has a spell checker. Don't need any help thank you.

I use it regularly.

Spell check is good until you correctly spell the wrong word!  I love Grammarly.

With my typing skills I need to use it more

Eye Thunk I were usin it ?
