because becuase
« 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
blah blah blah

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
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

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.

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