The mistake I always fall foul of is the "less" or "fewer" one.

Spelled and spelt I have difficulty with- as I was taught both on American and British Curriculums. That messes the brain up a bit !!

I have an great excuse, English is not my mother language - In Deutsch dagegen könnte ich mich eloquent mit meinem Gegenüber unterhalten.

I can pretty much understand everything but I am not as good at expressing myself auf Deutsch. I can't do umlauts or scharfes S either.

Sprechen Sie mit mir in Deutsch jederzeit möglich. I can't guarantee I can talk back to you though.

Cool!
So, if you are up to refresh your german, no problem

Aber besser nicht hier, weil wir sonst anfangen die anderen zu nerven.

Oh, pyramid* hattest du nicht auch einmal geschrieben du würdest ebenfalls deutsch sprechen?

[Jessica.]

All of it annoys me. :/

People who think that "a lot" or "a bit" should be written as one word

I fail!
I love strawberry ice-cream! I love strawberries more though, I got sick of them for a while when I was selling them but I can safely say they are sehr wunderbar! <3

Using, 'Should of', instead of, 'Should have'.

A great deal of intelligent people who simply have no concept of the English language in it's most basic form written form. Don't get me wrong, we're all guilty of typing too fast, making little typos but I'm being specific to clearly not understanding the difference in words - which words to use when.

I had to laugh at one of my FB contacts, holds a very senior position in work. He posted and was slagging off the girls from Essex for their bimbo-like status, ripping them to shreds about their lack of intelligence.

In different posts, he used the words, 'They're / there / their', and not once did he use them correctly. Ironic to say the least, funnier though was watching his mates posting the same type of thing - ridiculing these Essex girl types for being thick when these idiots couldn't differentiate between a few simply words themselves.

It doesn't annoy me but I never fail to be astounded at how many people display such ignorance to their own language!

Sorry what were you saying there?

That should be its, not it's.

It would be good to at least know the basic stuff yourself before you start moaning at others.

I wasn't moaning at others. I was merely posting my views.

I see you didn't read the words immediately after the part you bolded! I didn't say I (or anyone else) was perfect. I was referring quite specifically (in that post) about spelling...


As I mentioned a few posts back, if you are going to be overly smart, make sure you are completely beyond reproach. There should be a 'comma' in your first sentence.

I'm not the one starting a thread about it, am I?

Also, yes, as well is two separate words, thank you.

Also, the comma is used for clarity. It makes perfect sense without a comma so it isn't needed.

Spelt and spelled are both acceptable.
