"Spelling mistakes that annoy you? Which words that are often spelt incorrectly annoy you the most? Mine is your and you're. Spelling mistakes do not bother us but poor grammar is another thing entirely. You should have said 'Mine are...' and not 'Mine is...'. Try harder. " The original was correct. Is was used because the writer was citing a single example, that example being "your and you're". If the writer had two examples of a common mistake, such as, "mine are your/you're and misuse of is and are" then are would have been correct as opposed to is. | |||

"None as my spelling is not the greatest....why judge others and their flaws... " That is a good point. However, a mistake being pointed out to you should be takentaken eagerly as an opportunity as opposed to taken as an insult. Learning is fun. Allegedly. | |||

Would you like me to light anymore bonfires for you to piss on? (I feel so stupid). | |||

I guess you have to be quite tactful in those circumstances. Perhaps not my strong point always. | |||

"I've been a poor speller but have improved with age. So I don't tend to judge, only that I don't like text speak in emails. My pet hate is using the word decreet/decrete incorrectly!

"It's ok thing that stops me from liking someone or getting on with them just some of the words they spell incorrectly should be spelt correctly as they all have iPhones! " That was supposed to read 'it's not something that stops me from liking someone' And the iPhone autocorrect helps people spell words correctly. | |||

Did you use an IPhone to post this, if you did it clearly defeats your argument. And what about those without an IPhone, like us? | |||

"Why do people put apostrophes on plurals? Or should I say, apostrophe's on plural's? " That annoys me too. Have to restrain myself from correcting them when out and about!! | |||

"When posting on here or in texts, I usually put ma instead of my and yer instead of your because that's the way I pronounce it. If however I'm writing something a little more official I cross ma Ts and dot ma Is. At the end of the day, as long as I can understand what I'm reading it matters little to me. The spoken language is so diverse and this is portrayed in the written word " exactly this! I use me instead of my .. Ya instead of your... Aint instead of isn't... Etc etc .... Is how it is in me neck of the woods! | |||

"Doesnt matter to me if someone has a spelling mistake or for that matter carnt spell. Not meeting somebody for that reason in my opinion is a bit strange. Someone might not be the clever with spelling but doesnt stop them from being a good fuck. When people advertise a meet saying they are looking to play i presume they are after playing a spelling game and not playing sexually. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion tho." Erm ? You presume they want to play spelling ? | |||

Dyslexics aside, it's likely that people who don't give a damn about their spelling and I will not have a mental connection of any sort. I need that cerebral spark to be there. It's not an absolute rule but it is, in my experience, a very strong indicator. Good sex is partly mental, partly attitude and certainly more than sticking tab A into slot B. | |||

For example , I am not a good speller, however I am far from stupid. ( I got ologies!!! lol ) My spelling has no bearings what so ever how good i may be in bed! I am able to converse with a huge number of different people, and can talk about many subjects ... Just because somebody can't spell ( for what ever reason , and there can be many) in my eyes , is no reflection to the person they truly are. Is like saying perfect spellers and the most intelligent people in the world are all wonderful people and perfect fucks Each to their own etc, just don't feel really that's always the case | |||

"No spelling mistakes annoy me on here, its a site for NSA sex, I am not in the least bit interested if someone passed their A Level English. In other words, I care not a jot. " My English spelling isn't great and I'm very concious of that but luckily my phone and laptop will highlight any mistakes. Typos are a different matter though and can be quite funny sometimes | |||

After all content and way people express themselves ( in what ever dialect, slang , spellings )in the written word , are the important bits for us . We all do what works for us as induviduals , would be boring if we were all the same . And I am often confused / perplexed with stuff on here! Don't have to be crazy to be here... But it helps! | |||
