Yes. But that's actually somewhat on-brand.

U.K. #Police services are known for using an "0" instead of an "O" in the word "P0LICE", for example.

How Did The Police Get This So Wrong?

The Citizen

I use to be ashamed or not happy about my spelling mistakes and habit of not being able to write proper spellings, but now I feel like this might be what I need to keep having. This gives my messages a uniqueness that they are not perfect, they are not accurate, they are not just ai generated.

dont get me wrong I do use ai, I do use spell checks but now I am less worried about a spelling mistake I made while typing a response coz I am sure other person will immediately realised I actually wrote it coz I did a spelling mistake.

#WritingTips

There are lots of tips for #writers about do this and don't do that, but one thing that is very important is to be aware of homophones.

There and Their are common ones but there are actually a lot more (depending on your accent) than you might first realise.

course/coarse, hanger/hangar, led/lead, etc.

It's so very easy to miss these, even if you know the correct spelling.

Not only that, there are also words of similar spelling that mean very different things. I posted a toot the other day about the words Torturous and Tortuous. But there are also things like Tentative and Attentive.

And stupid spellcheck won't spot any of these!

Stupid spellcheck.

Another sighting of the English word for a female human mistyped as "women".
WomAn - one female human, WomEn - more than one.
I've never seen this confusion between "man" and "men".
Is it an unwittingly propagated insult? A woman is not an individual? <\not_quite_serious>

Perhaps English needs a new word for human females. I'd go with that.
Even better, drop gendering unless actually necessary, which is surprisingly rare. Might improve thinking.

From my 16 year old son, Dylan:

My roof has a leek...
Oops, that was wrongly spelt
Back to school I go!
