Oh I don't like to see 2 very nice guys sparring online and falling out.... ...I know we can't all agree with everyone..but hey I just don't like to see 2 nice people fall out!!
Bobby, I DID look it up because I didn't know what it meant, although I've heard it many times. Thank you for YOUR understanding! Howl
You're certainly welcome Hal. All I am trying to convey to you is that no one is perfect. Not you, not me, or anyone else in this world. When I read something, I read it as if someone is talking to me and just like reading, when someone talks they often make mistakes. Again, no one is perfect and no matter how hard a person tries, mistakes are going to happen and frankly, just because I do pick up on mistakes doesn't mean the person committing them is dumb or stupid. Just like me, they are human. If I understand what is being said, I do not really care how it's spelled. A person reveals his inner self in so many other ways than his or her spelling and if we look back, our forefathers revealed a lot and they pretty much all sucked at spelling but no one in their right mind would ever call them dumb. Enough from me. We're okay Hal but I do get a little ticked when I read or hear someone call other people dumb or stupid without a good reason and a lack of good spelling ain't a good reason.
I fully agree Bobby, and I will therefore refrain from berating those who do not possess PhD's in journalism! Hal
I'm sorry, but you misspelled the last word in your sentence. Should read: "OK, I ain't gonna allow no bad grammer or crappy spelling hear." Know nede to thanck me.

Para, tambien, dos I have a question. When someone is speaking to us, do we stop them and ask them if they meant 2, too or to whilst they are speaking? I think the answer is, Nope. It’s understood, or maybe not? Now, I am not advocating for lousy writing but sometimes it’s just a thing and nothing to worry about for after all, we all know what the writer meant when a typo or misspelled word occurs. There’s a few people who can’t spell, conjugate nor punctuate for a lick on this forum but I understand it and what’s more, I really, really enjoy what they write. Besides, Ken is always complaining about so many vowels and subtracting a o might be a good way to save on vowels.
Maybe by proxy. His daughter is a writer so ......? On second thought, no. If one of my progeny were an idiot that wouldn’t make me an idiot by proxy so no, not even by proxy.
I think it is since context as well as pronunciation and syntax tell us which of these words the speaker is using. I'm thinking of /tuː/ vs /tə/. So, in most cases there's no need interrupt someone, is there?
