I mis-spelled (mis-spelt) what incorrectly, semi-literate or spelt? Both are correct both in terminology and spelling. Spelt is an acceptable version of the past tense of spell (and also past participle) just as spelled is.
I was pointing out you picked him for spelling illiterate incorrectly, its not so much a spelling error as a syntax one. there is no such word or phrase as semi-illiterate. You should have picked him up like this:
"Claymores you muppet you used the wrong term, its semi-literate. Get a grip of your syntax you plum!"
