Posted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 7:51 pm Post subject: It's THE not TEH! How many times?! |
|
|
For crying out LOUD!
Ever since I started using the internet I have been typing TEH instead of THE against my own will.
What is it with the western keyboard? It has to be the keyboard because that somewhat Irish pronunciation is certainly not how I think.
I just can't avoid it - I have always had to edit every single occurrence of TEH in my posts.
There is very rarely a time when I am blessed with the pleasure of typing THE without error. _________________

I feel your frustration because I type "teh" a lot on accident and have to backspace or edit. It get's really annoying. I also type "relaly" a lot instead of "really". I think sometimes I type too fast. I used to type with one or two fingers years ago but all the time spent on the internet has got me typing faster. I thought there was another word that I mess up a lot but can't remember what it is. _________________ https://www.facebook.com/groups/moviesnshows/?ref=bookmarks |

I'd like to thank you both, and anyone else, who takes the time to make sure that the message they post is readable. There are many here who don't or can't be bothered to and their posts read like something written by a child just learning their A, B's and C's. It's terrible.
If the little red line is under a word that means it's spelled wrong! Use the spell check. It's not that hard. Really. So many posts here make people look like imbeciles it's not even funny. _________________ When I die bury me face down so the whole world can KISS MY ASS!

Hi Pennywise
the unintentional wrong typing words, well I recognize this very well !
I use to type "weeknd" instead of "weekend", all the time
Before I send a message to mailfriends I always look over the words to correct afterwards ...
My only problem on the forums here is the English language.., 'cause I'm a Dutchman..I do use sometimes "Google translation" but it gives not always the right words |

I understand non-English speaking people making mistakes. It's those of us who speak English that make mistakes and can't be bothered to fix them that bothers me. _________________ When I die bury me face down so the whole world can KISS MY ASS!

I alway's double check my post's for mistake's, But I notice alot of people dont check there post, And it's usually the simple word's.
The mistake I make on the keyboard the most is hitting the Caps Lock at the same time with a, I dont tend to look at the keyboard to much when I type so I see a mistake when it happen's.
I use four left finger's and 3 right finger's.
Touch typing is great, But until you really get the hang of it, It can be quite fustrating.
When I type the, Im using left, right, left hand's.
Carnt say I remember making that mistake, But I still make way to many mistake's, Usually it's two key's at once with touch typing, I either need smaller finger's, Or bigger key's |

I've done it many times myself. Along with many other words on the keyboard or while texting. |

Some of the browsers I use have spell checking helper which really helps if you are not sure how to spell a word.
As for seeing "teh" written in a sentence, when used correctly it sounds like an awesome addition to new leet talk! |

You double check your posts for mistakes? You spelled frustrating wrong. _________________ https://www.facebook.com/groups/moviesnshows/?ref=bookmarks |

Orange is the grammatical and spelling mistakes. Personally I wouldn't make a grandiose statement like "I alway's double check my post's for mistake's..." or "I dont tend to look at the keyboard to much when I type so I see a mistake when it happen's" when you say "But I still make way to many mistake's...". _________________ When I die bury me face down so the whole world can KISS MY ASS!

Mistake central right there.
Yes I do double check my posts, but that doesnt mean it's still not filled with mistakes.
Thanks for the english lesson.
Need to get a spell checker. |

Then why bother checking your post if you're too lazy to fix the "mistakes"? _________________ When I die bury me face down so the whole world can KISS MY ASS!
