Spelling: two sides to the issue

What I learned in a Engish course is a legal use in case anyone wants to know ---> ( SIC ) I did not know what it ment until I had it as part of my college course example Speedometer ( SIC) Speedohmeter whoops error right ? thats why they invented this neat little thing . look it up in a Dictionary or Encyclopedia also on line as well.

have fun

 

If you use the MOZILLA or FireFox browsers (GAWD, I don't know why anyone would use I.E.) you can D/L a "Spell Check" PLUG-in that works nice.....not that I EVER need to use it, or anything like that....

 

Just a little idea here but could we possibly post a sticky suggesting a spell check done on posts to outside forums that reference this one? Case in point, the lawyer from NJ.

 

What I have noticed even though we are a huge trucker forum
That many members call this home and consider a good amount of our members as personal cyberfriends

With so many different personalities and back grounds its understandable that some issues will come to light that can be worked on

And one of those would be spelling

Lets take a little different look at the issue

Please respect all members even if they lack ability in spelling and grammar

Reminding them or dismissing what they have to say in public forum serves only to embarrass that member and alienate what could be a valuable source with vast experience to share


Mom used to say "if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all"


For all the bad spellers like myself, I use spell check all the time
Heck my spelling is so bad sometimes spell check cant even figure out the word I'm trying to use LOL

This makes me very angry. That petty people and their childish attempts to elevate themself by insulting another could prevent someone from expressing themself.

I sincerely hope he'll begin posting more.

 

Well sometimes i dont spell so great, and i go back before i actually post to try to catch mistakes, but sometimes i dont catch them, and i dont always put commas and periods where they belong, but the thing is, i get my point across in the end. Look at the post that i think southernpride posted just the other day on this very matter. I guess if wise one or any of the other mods want to kick people out of here for bad spelling, then theres going to be a whole lot less members left here in the long run.

 

Not to mention; if your only argument is another's bad grammar/spelling, you have lost the debate already (not to mention ad homonym attacks on the source).
