Re: Learn to spell
said by Karl Bode  :English could be his second language, but even then -- use a spell-checker when conducting professional correspondence with a website you just threatened to take off-line. Using a Spell Checker would not have helped in this case (since "Sight" is a validly spelled word). You'd need to use a Grammar Checker. All Spell Checkers do is verify that the "word" represents the valid spelling of SOME word - Not that is is the CORRECT word for this context - That is the purpose of a Grammar Checker such as the "Spelling and Grammar" tool in MS Office Word. While suggesting that a Spell Checker should be used is a good first step, that does not mean that the failure to find any misspelled words is the end of the process. You still must review the text to spot the use of incorrect words and replace them with the correct word. |
