Spelling not my best subject can you tell?

hi sis----- morning----I have a doubt------why do use a comma in place of a hyphen----i thought you have typed in wrongly---but you seem to be maintaining it every other response---what the mystery(confusion) behind it

Thats what i have done now

That, my, dear, is, for, me, to, know, and, for, you, to, find, out.

My first language is indonesian, I come from Indonesia. In my language there is not differences between writing and spelling. for example word "eat" in English is different between writing and spelling. But In my language there is no differences,the word 'eat' in my language is 'makan'. We write it 'makan' and we spell it 'makan'. I think you are in hurry in typing and writing something, so you misspell some word. just relax and don't be hurry...

I agree that is a main problem but I do have to sounds things out to spell them some times. I also misspell a lot of them just by accident too. I need to work on it a little more so that I can expand my vocabulary and spelling of it. What is some other words in Indonesian? How does Indonesia differ from the states?

I have no clue I just am not a good speller. I have never been, it is something I guess I never too the time to correct and now it haunts me. I also have bad grammar. I hated English class in school so I just didn't do it and when I did I didn't do it well. What is you native language? You don't make spelling errors in that language? Everyone makes spelling mistakes sometimes. Most of the time it can be a typing error other times its I just wrote in a hurry.

that's alright... it is my pleasure... at the moment, i can't think of any other word that has a difference in the US and UK version... but i had encountered many in the past... when i can think of others, i will definitely let you know... take care and have a nice day...

i just come across another two: favourite vs favorite and favour vs favor... i am always being taught to use the UK version of english (colour, favourite, favour, etc)... but i think the speller checker in microsoft word and mylot use the US version of english... (i might be wrong)... take care and have a nice day...

Wow I didnt know that about UK and English. What are some others? That is kinda neat to know! I have seen color spelled colour I always wondered why... now I know thanks for teaching me something new today!!!! I shall use that in something one day I AM SURE.

I agree it is tough. I have did the because one and also have probably done the discussions one. I love Firefox with the built in that way I don't miss all the spelling errors I mean there is a couple post where I was on IE and you can tell it because my spelling errors are right there in plain view!!!

Please show me a smilie! I have left messages all over the place for you suggesting that you log out and then back in again. They are in the box called 'myLot code' to the left where you are typing your response....

And friends like me point out those mistakes and make fun of this Yellow Emoticon ----which pretends to be thinking every time-----infact she would be sleeping Mistake in your main post-----co-ordinated-------resy(rest)----wat(way) When shall I come for the classes Miss Diana-----you're english is horrible and terrible----small kids of my age are running away--to the corners--And if you keep on searching in mylot for those words it would start abusing you lol @Christina------why dont you start using your emoticons girl----you have crossed your 200----feel free to use those hugs to diana and another one who barged in this box

Welcome to the Party----Enjoy the Emoticon W'r'old Mylotting can help you make things better and worser too

I know a lot can be typos but I know I have horrible spelling and need to work on it. I have yet to though But maybe if I write on here more it will help me work on that. to mylot.I mylot.

Hey at least I didn't have to overcome text talk, just im talk. I have gotten a bunch better and haven't been saying u instead of you and such. I use to be super bad about it. Mylot is rubbing off on me I text-ed my mom today using words she goes woahhhh what happen to you who is this.

Wow that is cool. I am a little curious though if you are blind how can you see my response? I always am intrigued to know how you are able to these things.. That is so cool that you know how to do this and have learned to adapt without being able to see. Is it a lot harder to do things being blind? Is it hard to learn braile?

Well a few years ago windows and Freedom sincitific got togeather and created screan-reading technology. It allows people like me to hear what you normally see. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done. I'm able to interact on the computer just like you do. I use two hands to type and I was taught to type "correctly". Being blind can be difficult sometimes, but when that's all you've ever known, then its not as difficult. In fact if my site were fully restored I wouldn't know how to survive because I've spent an entire lifetime blind. Learning braille is only as hard as how you're exposed to it. The younger you are the quicker it is to pick up. For me it was extreamly difficult. For a number of years when I was growing up, it was thought I had partical sight, and therefore when I went to school was taught print when I should have been learning braille. What i know about braille, I self-taught myself. Otherwise I'd probably not know as much as I know now nor would have I been able to complete high school. Which I barely did. But, that school wasn't the best. But, because it existed in my home town my parents were forced to send me there. Doing things blind isn't that much harder then doing things sighted. In fact I have an advantage over my partner, George, when we lose power during the night. Since I can navigate our apartment in the dark as easily as i can during the day, then I'm able to do things much quicker and faster. Where as George is always grabbing for flashlights to put some light in the room. If you have any more questions I'm always happy to answer them.

That is neat so it like a text to speech type thing? Or something else. I guess I just never imagined a person using a computer that was blind. I am really intrigued. I think that is just awesome that technology helps you do every day things and helps you continue life as if you would if you wasn't blind. No one believed you was blind in school? Wow that is harsh. Wasn't there test and things they could have done to prove you was and needed help getting along? So you can write because you was taught thinking you was not blind?

That is good to know that I am not the only one. I thought maybe I was making a semi fool out of myself trying to sound out the words I have problems with. I know my daughter is in kindergarten and starting to learn how to read words and sound so she stretches sounds out to spell them. I thought it was just me thanks for helping me to know I am not the only one. I am glad that I can confide in my mylot friends and find out that it isn't something that I should be ashamed of.

I have heard of those kinds like the one that is a forward that says if you can read this copy and paste it in your status because people really only read the first letter of words or something like that. I didn't know that but yeah I read it then went back and it was spell totally wrong. I am an amazing reader I can read from one letter!!!! I also misspell things because I am in a hurry or tired. I have done it a lot and forget about it.
