Aaargh!

Can I just point out a few spelling/grammar issues that drive me potty every time I see them.

1. It's not 'Should Craig/Brian/Kate/Cameron/Nadia/Anthony/Pete OF won?'

It's should they HAVE won!!!!!!!

2. YOUR - means belonging to you.
It DOESN'T mean - i.e. - 'I think you are great.'
If you want to write that, it is 'I think YOU'RE great.'


Thankyou. I feel MUCH better now.:flowers:

That has been bugging me also. I didn't want to say anything. :blush:

The other one is using apostrophes to form plurals. :shocked:

I hate it when people mix up "they're", "their" and "there".
But, I also hate the ole' 'your' and 'you're' mistake. :hugesmile:

Problem is 10% of the population is dyslexic. They have enough trouble spelling, let alone remembering the rules of grammar.

Do you think we should really be putting them off from posting with a thread like this that makes them feel inferior.

This is chat board and people tend to post as they speak. It might not be grammatically right but we wouldn't have such a rich language if everyone in the past followed the rules of grammar.

When I read this post the dread of fear came to me. Like Red, I too am dyslexic and as much as I try I cant always be grammatically correct!

Sorry if my grammar bugs people but I cant help it :cloud:

With the 'your/you're' one I actually have to think about which one is right, and check it, every time I type it.

I was chosen to take part in helping with grammar at my primary school. I do find it difficult to spell also to have the right grammar so I always type it, read it, put it on word, correct spellings, and post and finally edit (when i have made a mistake i didn't notice)...... so I do apologise if I don’t make sense at times but I’m trying.

Ok, I really don't think this post was against people with learning difficulties or forms of dyslexia.
It was mainly aimed at people too lazy to learn basic grammar rules, and people who spell things wrong when they know the real spelling. (This fits into people saying "u" instead of "you" etc).

~Kizwiz~

:sad: I was only saying that when I see a punctuation or grammar error like the one above I notice it, that's all. Wasn't attacking anyone, or anything like that. Sorry. :sad:

If I know the person writing has dyslexia I wouldn't point out - or be bothered by - their spelling or grammar mistakes, just like if a writer's first language isn't English it isn't proper to point out their spelling or grammar errors.

It's not about being lazy, it's about actually not knowing or making a mistake. Some people don't know any difference.

People not using full stops or comma's bugs me just because you can't understand the posts half of the time whearas getting they're there's mixed up (yes, i did it on purpose) shouldn't be an issue as you can easily understand the posts and as it's been pointed out several times, 'there are younger members on the forum' so therefore mightn't know and even older members who are dyslexic or who simply get mixed up sometimes like i do. It's an easy mistake to make as your not sitting an English GCSE so your not exactly paying much of an interest as your just chatting on a 'friendly' forum.

Your all b@$tards. :wink: :tongue:

They weren't - they were talking about something completely different about people adding comma's when they shouldn't be there as well as getting there, they're and their mixed up.

I think most people will agree about the text talk etc but the 'spelling' thing, you need to understand that quite simply; people cannot spell.

Kind of defeats the objective of a forum.
And how are people to know when a post is coming up with wrong grammar? We don't know until we've read it, and then, well... it's too late.

I'm (not) sorry that people think I'm attacking their disorder/learning difficulty. Because I'm really not - I'm simply pointing out what annoys me, and the things I have outlined do annoy me.

Lauren
23-11-2006, 09:56 PM
Simon, you're taking my words too literally.
It's you that said I shouldn't read what people have to say, not me.
It annoys me, yes. But as Legend has already pointed out, I can still understand what people are saying. Just because it annoys me doesn't mean I don't want to listen to what people have to say.

It could well be the same people, but their point is still valid to me - even if the grammar errors annoy me.
As I said, I can't just "ignore" everything that annoys me in life - that would get me no-where.

Lets worry more about what people are saying , other than the precise spelling of it.You'll end up with a perfectly grammatical forum with about 3 members on it otherwise.

I like a lot of the messages that are written on the spur of the moment,especially during BB when people are writing in direct reaction to something that has just happened.By the time they stop to spell/grammar check it all the moment would have passed.

Lauren
23-11-2006, 10:10 PM
I didn't say that it should be in the rules that everything should be perfect grammatically.
I just said that, personally, it annoys me.

So there you go it's doesn't matter about spelling.

It doesn't affect whether you can understand it or not. :hugesmile: I've already said, yes, I can understand what people are saying when they spell things incorrectly or use wrong grammar.
Yet it still annoys me.

I know what your saying Lauren ,but I would be a bit more fed up if someone had something great to say but either lost their momentum or even did'nt bother contributing for fear of not knowing their grammar too well.

Yeah I agree Dan, Some people aren't that good at spelling, But they make an effort. To be honest it spelling mistakes don't bother me at all, Because most of the time I know what they mean.

Its text speech that annoys me, That's just pure lazy! And I don't understand a lot of it. :bored:

Problem is some people might feel that way. Some people will have had enough of teachers correcting their grammar to last them a lifetime and they don't come on here for grammar lessons. It will put them off posting.

People can be tolerant of others failings and considerate towards their feelings. It doesn't take much effort. Threads like this don't help towards that attitude.

Some people will feel this thread is an attack on them, after all there was a quote at the start of the thread. It's not your fault you have your opinion, it's valid opinion to have, many on the site will have it and you have very right to state it. But is it right to belittle people, with maybe little confidence, with a thread like this? Do we as a community need to do it? Are there times when our opinions about certain matters best left unsaid?

Ella
23-11-2006, 10:51 PM
I agree Red.

Some people may be to embarrased to post on this forum again now, or even scared! Because they might think people will make fun of them.

This thread is kind of mean I think...It's not like people make spelling mistakes on purpose.

Even I feel a bit Uh Oh now, in case I make a mistake...Feels like i'd get my head chopped of.

I agree with you on that. Text speech is just beyond annoying for me.

I'm glad that people have ironed out their (:spin2: yeah correct... I think:puzzled:) problems. But I'm still very weary of my mistakes now.

So I hold my hands up high and say that I will make mistakes often because of my dyslexia and I dont know I'm doing it. I get letters, numbers and even words mixed round. I have to really think about my b's and my d's and which one I should be using.

Like I said in my first post, when I read this thread it put the fear of God into me as I cant control how I spell or use grammar.

But I now understand that some people find it annoying. If I had understood the rules of grammar when I was taught it then yes it might annoy me too, but everyone is different. Nobody is perfect. I cant spell for toffee but I have other talents. And from a very young age I have had to have a very big dictionary close at hand, but I can pick up a paint brush and create art!

I guess what I am trying to say is that everone has faults. Picking up on them makes things 100 times worse. I enjoyed reading through this thread this moring because it was nice to see people having a debate. After all isnt that what this site is all about? Voicing your opinions and someone else voicing theirs (:puzzled: right speling???) And that, of late, is something that has been missing from the site :flowers:

All I'm really asking is for a little leniency :flowers:

If i was the sensitive type then right now i'd be thinking 'Uh oh, James and other members get really annoyed at people putting comma's in the wrong place' as other members have been using the mad :mad: emotion too. Now, after typing 'comma's', i looked and realised i have a comma after the a and i don't know if it should be there or not. If it shouldn't then i've 'really annoyed' some members as well as the Admin on the site. Now, as i'm not the sensitive type; i really couldn't care less because i'm not going to get my mum upstairs and ask each time if i am putting a comma in the wrong place, am i? Whearas, the 'sensitive type' people will and it will really put people off posting.

I may get mixed up with my there, they're and their's and put comma's in the wrong place but i don't use text speech and i use full stops, capital laters and my posts are readable.

Right, everybody knows that a full stop should be used yeah? But i've never been taught in school that you could replace ':hugesmile:', ':wink:' emotions etc with full stops which is what James, jem_stone and Lauren has done. Now, not using full stops or getting mixed up with comma's and the word 'there'. What's more of an issue? I know that's really petty but people are pointing out faults that annoy them which other people don't know any different but insist on replacing full stops with emotions.

Plus, i can understand how text speech annoys people but how on earth does a comma or a word spelt wrong really annoy people? Surely there are more important things both on and off the forum which are more important?

Anyway, there/their you go, my mouthful. :whistle:

Without sounding nasty the person who made the thread is hardly on, and to pick at a small thing like that is bit over the top. If people miss comma's and full stop's why is it a problem?

Also spelling mistakes everyone makes them we ain't all perfect. :wink:

1. It's not 'Should Craig/Brian/Kate/Cameron/Nadia/Anthony/Pete OF won?'

It's should they HAVE won!!!!!!!

2. YOUR - means belonging to you.
It DOESN'T mean - i.e. - 'I think you are great.'
If you want to write that, it is 'I think YOU'RE great.'

Don't worry about it everyone makes mistakes, ive made loads and if people don't like it tough, it's not like your using text speech is it.

I just don't see why people are making a deal out of a couple of small mistakes, it's pointless.

Guys we are not exactly gonna hate you if you don't have proper grammar. I don't either! It is annoying for me because I'm also getting C's and D's in English just because I can't spell or use grammar. I think ROB was just saying. No one should be put off posting because of a few grammar mistakes! It is just silly. As long as we all understand each other I think personally it is better to all get along then putting a comma in the right place.

Look this Thread should Be locked

R.O.B is going to come on and feel like its her fault that people are saying that it will get people too nervous to post, when that is a load of crap its not her fault.

Fair enough people make mistakes when there typing we all do and thats life. And R.O.B was only letting people know that she gets anoyyed about it.

So Mainly this thread has been made into a pontless one by all the bickering for who is right and whose wrong

Everyone is right, everyone is entitled to an opinion but we should not let it get out of hand :nono::nono:

I dont always get things right, and i dont think its fair to correct them and say its 'annoying'.

Although it could upset people, I think they (we, I) should be aware. Everyone makes mistakes when it comes to spelling/typing etc but some people may be dyslexic as some else pointed it. It is better if they're aware.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. I can't recall any mistakes you've made. I didn't know you were dyslexic.

It's really only people who are lazy and use text speech and no punctuation at all that we're worried about (because that makes posts difficult to read) . Not wrongly typing the odd word or sentence.

So this means it okay to start a "I'm annoyed" threads all over the place. After all I would only be voicing my opinion!

Well I get annoyed about loads of things but I don't start threads about them. For example, I get annoyed about people picking on people especially for things they can't help.

CC - i could take all the time in the world and come to the same conclusion, that being that i really haven't a clue. It's not like it's done on purpose.

And Andy - you can't just jump into a thread feet first and start mouthing of about people's feelings as some people have a learning difficultie and therefore can't help it and that can't be justified. Also, only some of the replies were aimed at ROB anyway, others replied to the thread and mine were directed at others.

Anyway, as somebody else said on a previous page, it's been good reading through this thread as it's good listening to other people debating about something, something meaningful on the forum.

Right fair enough but its only a topic and you dont even know the person so why should it bother you. She was a moderator and was telling people that she gets annoyed at the little things to try and make it a neater forum not to pick on people who have reading or writitng difficulties, i feel that she was only try to point out something, and yeah if there is something bothering you why not post it? i dont see the crime on that, do you ?

Andy - are you dyslexic? Your obviously not otherwise you wouldn't be talking nonsense. It's not a 'little thing' at all. It's a pretty big thing.

It's the equivalent of somebody who has another form of learning difficuilties which affects their speech and people then stop them in the street and say 'your speech is annoying me' and then pull an angry face. They are both learning difficuilties that can't be helped so it's not a 'little thing' in the slightest.

It is a big deal so i'll therefore make a big deal about it. I'll get over it, as soon as you stop it with these kinda posts. It was actually a good 'debate' if you like with the odd exception but you seem to turn everything into an argument.

Well in that case I will start a thread for every little thing that annoys me on this forum! Is that the right thing to do????

I have a long list this evening!!!!!!

The point is Andy, some people took it personally, that may have been wrong in your eyes but not in mine. I'm sorry but telling me or anyone else who wants to debate this subject to "get over it" is not really fair.

Right fair enough but its only a topic and you dont even know the person so why should it bother you. She was a moderator and was telling people that she gets annoyed at the little things to try and make it a neater forum not to pick on people who have reading or writitng difficulties, i feel that she was only try to point out something, and yeah if there is something bothering you why not post it? i dont see the crime on that, do you ?

Not a crime no as i'd be getting on the phone to 999 but then the forum should be called 'i'm annoyed' rather than TiBB.

There was a 'Moan Thread' so if you want a moan then go in there. How is starting all 'i'm annoyed' threads going to make the forum look 'neat'?

Look i dont care what you think

And i have nothing wrong with dyslexic people some of my friends are and sorry if you have a problem with reading but i dont see how its ROBs fault, she didnt know people had a learning problem and if you want to go on and on legend then stop wasting your time

Please do quote me on when i said 'people who have a problem with reading and writing is ROB's fault' because it's slipped my mind completely. :rolleyes:

You seriously need to get it into your head that i have not mentioned ROB, take ROB out of the equation and stop trying to stick up for people when in all honesty, your trying to come across as the 'big man'. You are the one going on and on, and don't tell me i'm wasting my time when i'm making very valid points.

I agree with kizwiz, i'm really getting angry now but mainly because of some of the stupid posts. But unlike kizwiz, i do get angry more often.

Yes, you do that. Don't reply to my posts, and the reason is because you've got nothing to say back at me isn't it? If you had something meaningful and valid to say then you wouldn't just 'not reply'. :dance2:

You can't accuse people of saying that it's another members fault that people have learning difficuilties all because you haven't read the posts properly.

And ok, yeah leave it at that as i've said all i want to say and you've backed down because you know i'm right and you've not got an argument. :cheer:

Oh and i'm not 'snooping' and your the one looking for the argument by even posting in this thread as you didn't reply giving your opinion on the matter, you replied by trying to be the big man.
