I notice that I have also rather bad situation in my head… firt message and I already managed to make misstakes in spelling! Because I´m a nasty perfectionist here are the missing letters from my previouse message: one g and a c ![]()
-I do know how to read and write, I DO know how to…

If I had to post in Sami I’d be reduced to pounding on the keyboard at random and hoping for the best. Some might say that’s really all I manage in English, my native language, in which I can read a bit, but cannot spell to save my life.
Relax. Have fun. Ignore the spelling Nazis. Good to see you here.

Don’t let it worry you. Anybody who plays online and can’t read fluent TYOP shouldn’t be here.
Anybody anal enough to be bracing other posters about their spelling (except in jest between friends) doesn’t deserve comment.
Tihs is azmanig…
cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg.
The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid,

Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!
You know, tribalwind, I am amazed by how easy your post was to read. That really is quite strange. I guess the problem with my husband’s emails is that he doesn’t get the first and last letters right—because they are much harder to read than your paragraph. I have sometimes really thought someone was emailing me in a foreign language when I’ve gotten them.
Mia–I had no problem at all understanding your other post. If you read some of the other posts around here you would know your spelling does not stand out in the least.
Just be a perfectionist when it matters!
What a releef! - I actually understod what You all wrote! I must be a wizard!
Thank´s for the warm wellcome despite me beeing a miss- spelling foreigner! ![]()

Well, that’s a relief! avanutria—I hadn’t considered how hard it would be to write that. I guess I would have to have it correctly in front of me, write the first and last letters and then cross off the other letters as I used them. Yikes! I think I’ll stick to correct spelling after all. ![]()
Tribalwind, I must say Your post changed my world; I spent 9 years of learning english at school and all the teachers pointed how important is to learn proper spelling for being understod… Now I know I have been cheated! ![]()
