don't laugh at me.

Oh never mind the grammar and spelling as long as the words are readable and understandable enough... In my country, we are taught the american english language from day 1.as soon as the mother gives birth...everyone will be speaking english to the newborn.then as we enter pre school,we are taught how to read in english.by the time we reach the 1st grade,thats the time we study our national language,but we are allowed to speak our national language only on its appropriated time as a subject.that is about 1 hour. after that,we are expected to speak english all the time.our medium of instruction is in english.imagine studying english from pre school until graduating from college...and still most of us could not master the english language...i watched a TV program an hour ago and I heard the host making grammatical errors twice. I could identify mistakes right away because I teach beginning reading in the pre school,english in mid school and i had linguistics in my postgraduate.I am sure,anytime this month,that hosts grammatical error will appear in the papers as bloopers.people would be laughing at that host,when it fact,it is just alright.

Spelling has always been one of my better qualities. The English language is very difficult to learn. So many words have so many different meanings. Such crazy words as their or there are often misused. Their is used when describing someone's car for example: their car is nice and new. I give you lots of credit for undertaking the English language and mastering it to the fullest.

Hi dear its really good habit and i am sure by this u dont end up doing spelling mistakes like i do, and i am sure it increase ur vocabulary, so keep it up, to learn is always a good and healthy habit Take care

Me too, my English is not really good and I alway have a dictionary in front of me when I post. That's why you cant' see long discussions or post from me.

For me ,am using Fire fox so its easy to locate spelling mistakes.There is nothing to shame in it friend.........

well spelling is not a matter for me the grammar is... people can easily understand more if the grammar is correct ^_^

Well a dictionary will make you give out quality posts, infact, tht makes you smarter here than most of us who dont use anykind of dictionary

There is nothing to laugh at you, my friend.You want to write with perfection. It is a good practice and you will become a master soon. So there is nothing to shy about it. Referring dictionary is a good practice.Keep it up.

As funny as this may sound mylot is where I let my guard down . On my other writing sites they ask so much of you that I am happy I can just type and not have to worry . You know if I know I am way off on a spelling word I will look it up.

No, I wont laugh. I do it to. I consult the dic. from time to time.

I was same on you,i was on mylot every time,i always met some words which i had never seen,i must use dictionary.

Well I commit spelling mistakes too but thanks to firefox I could easily correct them when they are spotted Since we can't edit after we have posted, i think that the spellcheck function of firefox makes things easier for us to avoid mistakes.

hello friend,me,too.i also need to search some words in the web if i am not clear with it.I think it is more helpful to us to improve our english level.I think you will get a good progress in future.lol good luck

I can't discuss here without net dictionary. I can't certain if the word is right and I usually turn to the net dictionary.

There are times when I check with a dictionary to make sure I have the correct spelling for a word as well as the correct usage for it. I don't want to mistakenly use the wrong words when I mean something else or spell something so completely wrong. It also helps me learn things.

Dictionaries are a wonderful way to learn a foreign language, and a wonderful resource to use when trying to get any work done in that language. There is nothing to laugh about. I saw nothing wrong with your English in this discussion, and that proves that the dictionary is working for you. Good work!

My computer correct mistakes normally but with mylot,i put my paper dictionary aside atimes.

Just try to use Firefox to pull you off the burden of always having e-dictionary with you. Nice time.
