Title: because becuase
Post by: Adam on July 29, 2013, 07:13:46 AM
This is probably the typo I make most often

I'd say out of every 10 times I type 'because' it comes out 'becuase'

I make a lot of typos, but that one seems to be the one specific word that I fuck up the most and I have no idea why

Just thought I'd share this

What are your main typos? Do you notice any that seem to happen a lot?

Most of my mistakes are getting it wrong when double letters are involved.

Example

tomorrow

I sometimes put tommorow,  or even tommorrow.  I  do know the correct spelling but my fingers work faster than my brain at times.  :P

haha yeah, I think I do that sometimes too.

I don't even bother with correcting my tpos half the time either. Wow, just noticed that one <--- - I will leave it as it is thogh haha

I do sometimes worry that people look at my shit typing and lazy punctuation online and think I'm just THICK, but generally, I don't give a shit :laugh:

I just find it strange how often I type "becuase"

lol I do sometimes shorten it to "coz" I think

I pretty much always shorten "though" to "tho" too. Although I dunno why, as that's not one of my typo ones and it's only another three letters haha. Guess Im just lazy

I am dyslexic  :hahaha:

i get a lot of similar words mixed up "when" and "went" for example. Used to be a lot worse when I was younger

Me too.  I love spell check except when I click the wrong word in the options

While not a spelling confusion, "w" words trip me up.  "When we were wrong...." has to be said slowly and carefully.  I confuse Wal-Mart, Walgreens, and Winn-Dixie when speaking.

Miss 's' at the end of words. Spellcheck is no help.

It's funny it doesn't happen with work, only with language.

galazy instead of galaxy. I even typoed right now -.-

one that has occured more than once is shit instead of ship, which does the same thing in norwegian, and both these were just as endearing to me during sci-fi writing -.-
