Does it bug you when people spell incorrectly? Do you hate it when people can't spell "receive" and "weird" among many other words? Or do you not care that much or not at all?
Also, if you notice any spelling errors in this message, let me know. I tend to be obsessed with making sure everything is spelled correctly. I appreciate all your help and sorry if it seems as if I am a spelling maniac...LOL.

Hi I haven't proof read your message to check mistakes but these days the way people shorten words with text messaging there does seem to be more mistakes made in every day writing. For example in a text they use 2moro gr8 l8r and LOL. The English language is very complicated with words like to, too and two, for, fore and four, grate and great, red and read and of course ie before except after c odesn't always work either does it. It doesn't bother me as much as it seems to bother you but I find it frustrating at times. Ellie :)

i felt ashamed when i made a wrong spelling...not all the times we make right or correct spelling, time comes even you didn't notice the mistake you had made...but it doesn't count on me specially when i checked the country, he/she is not coming from USA or other english language country because they are not using english on their daily conversation...like me...we used 2 major languages here in our country, i speak our local language and also our national language...i speak difficulties in english but mylot help me to developed even in a slow manner.

Don't apologize there should be more spelling manics out there should be more people like you out there.
The odd typo I can understand but in the modern world with spell check there should be no excuses.
I must say that I am not a very good speller, but as I am aware of it I always double check everything!
Yes I think it is fair to say that spelling errors irk me!
