FL-JOE Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 Everyone has different levels of education, both formal and life experiences. I try not to pay much attention to grammar usage when reading forum posts. I have a BIL and SIL that are both retired professors from a small private college. They have zero common sense and are barely getting by on their retirement. We have friends we meet up with a couple times a year to ride our Harley's together. He couldn't put together a decent business letter if his life depended on it. The last year they were in business he put up over 200 new homes. He is one of the smartest people I have ever known plus he has a ton of common sense. I never judge people too harshly by checking their grammar or spelling.

folivier Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 I love misspellings and misused words. So much that I get paid to proofread books! Actually I've found that it's difficult to proofread your own work. You know what you just wrote, even if it isn't!

You know what you just wrote, even if it isn't! Oh, so true. I find that reading my writing out loud helps me find errors I missed when reading silently. I do reread what I wrote in a message before I post it but I still miss some errors--maybe I need to start reading those out loud, too? Except I'm quite sure my Dave does not want to hear every message I write.
