Let's hear it for capital I
When I proofread (and I try to proofread everything I write) I sometimes
find the oddest things. Occasionally it seems my brain is rushing so far ahead of my fingers that I type a word that sounds something like the one I was aiming for but has an entirely different meaning. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA Word MVP FAQ site: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote in message .. . I blame it on laziness. No one cares if something is spelled right. It's one thing to have an occasional typo but for heaven's sake! Spell check will catch most problems. (I say most because sometimes I type a bit too fast for my brain to actually read what I wrote and then hit that "ignore" button instead of "change".) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ... Isn't education a wonderful thing -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Paul Ballou wrote: You will find stupid spelling mistakes are fast becoming the normal thing not just on the internet in the workplace as well at least where I work...I interpret spelling mistakes or have to track down techs several times a day to deal with a communication issue with notes on a particular job... You just accept it or you are going to go crazy stressing over it..... wrote in message ... So many posters appear to be too lazy to use the capital I from time to time; some don't use it at all. I realise that sending it from a portable device might be ponderous, but many posters are apparently on a normal keyboard. How much effort does it take to hold down Caps now and then? And this in exchange for greater readability. Should we start a movement to protect an endangered species? |
