Mine has to be when people misspell 'definitely' as
'definately' or 'defiantly'

I get annoyed with my own misspelling.

Other peoples don't bother me at all, once I can make out what they mean.

Lol, but I pretty much agree with the above, my own misspellings do my head in, sometimes I have to use alternate words when I can't recall the right way to spell something.

This. I think it bothers me so much because until I was like 9 I used to always spell it wrong until my teacher taught me the right way, so since then I feel really superior to everyone because I know how to spell it.

I have absolutely no grounds to complain about ANYONES spelling. Mine is bloody awful. 9 times out of 10 I have to edit...and anyone who has ever seen me in a chatroom (especially shaun who has corrected me about a dozen times in plug over the past 2 weeks)will testify that I probably have worse spelling than a 2 year old

The worst one is when people use "of" instead of "off" or "have".

Could have, would have, should have, might have. NOT OF. *twitches*

I'd agree, until I think of seeing words like 'videe' (video). You know what I mean - that not getting pissy - that's someone taking the piss.

Not really a misspelling I suppose, but it really irritates me when people use the wrong "their", "they're" or "there" in a sentence.

I think many don't know the difference tbh.

Using 'of' instead of 'have' grates me. So too are those who don't know the difference in when to use 'of' and 'off'.

Basic English - but then again, we are on a forum, it's hardly a matter of life or death: but some mispellings and typos can be innocently very amusing.

I definately spell that incorrectly all the time. I know how to spell it, but my fingers won't do what the brain instructs it to.



When people use you're when they should use your.

..it's strange how you know how to spell something and yet still continue to spell it incorrectly..I do that with quite a few words and sometimes I have to look up words in the dictionary even though I know how to spell them...
..if I submit a post and then realise it has a spelling mistake, I have to edit it but sometimes I don't notice before someone could have quoted it and it drives me crazy thet the incorrect one is still there...OCD lol
