Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Couldn't refrain from commenting on some of the "misspellings" on Ford Barn. Many are comical and I often wonder if they are deliberate.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I suspect that most are accidental. I feel that the "accidents" should be overlooked since these folks have so much to contribute. Gar Williams

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Well....I'm just an ignorant grease monkey and can't spell worth ten cents anyway. As long as a person can get their message across in a legible fashion what do a few spelling errors matter?

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I use Firefox's built in spell checker, works great.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Also shows up when you right click your mouse on the spelling. Easy to use and recommended.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

You can always tell a typo from an spelling error. I think as long as the point gets across, who wants to nit pick.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I really don't care what your spelling is like. This forum is about Model A's and it doesn't matter what educational levels you were blessed to receive.:)
This has been hashed over before and ended in grief when all the "holier than thou's" piled on.
I recall one guy saying he just "closes the post" if he see's spelling errors. I mean really...get a grip man!

Threads like this should be nipped in the bud before good honest inteligent Model A'ers with admirable mechanical skills and a wealth of experiance to share.... get their feelings hurt and drop out:(
Oh...and for the record I never use spell check so I hope you'all find at least one error in this message:rolleyes:

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Threads like this remind me of juniorhigh, always having to find the weak spot and pick at it. Rod

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Wuz yu tokking bout "acne" Rod?:p:p

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I never cared for nit picking. I spell how i spell and i am what i am.
I never have trouble reading other peoples post no matter how they spell.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Not to nit-pick, but what bothers me, are those posts where the punctuation is totally lacking to the point of not being understandable. Sometimes I wonder how others understand them.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

If it's spelled wrong, id never catch it anyway:D.
I've been here about a year and i've never read a post i diden't understand, even if some words were spelled wrong.
im probley the worst speller here, and i don't use spell ck.:eek:.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I don't have a problem with it, but I wonder, why do so many people spell it "bumBer" not "bumPer"? I saw three different signs at Hershey that spelled it the same way.

I see it here, other car message boards and ebay...is it a regional thing?

No lower case i (I). just kidding!!!:p

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I try to never use no double negatives when I post on The Barn.
I find that it is just not no way to communicate.

Jack :)

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Since you asked, you must be some type of expert. Why do I type p's for b's and q's for d's, sometimes I type an n for an h and a b for a d. I'll do it when writing longhand or typing. What's up Doc?:confused:

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Was refering more to my dislexia and beat up hands that can no longer type correctly, but had acne at one time also. Rod

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

It's good to see a sense of humor on the ford barn. We need more of this in todays world. Keep em cummin.

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

Saw this somewhere a while back and thought it worth saving:


I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulacity uesdnatnrd waht I was rdgnieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid aoccdrnig to rsceearh at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy...it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzang huh? Yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt......!

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

I think the real question asked was is it ignorance, laziness, or on purpose?

Re: Spellings/Misspeling?
 

And it looks like the answer is, who cares, this is Ford Barn where each has an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers no matter how good his spelling is.
