The speeling Police ....

I should prolly be locked away forever .... or at least glance at my posts before hitting enter

Sometimes I see the spelling and typos, and my edits mak it worse....

I blame it all on my ohone

That O in place of a P gets me all the time on my phone. AI can't correct that?

You think autocorrect is bad? Turn it off and see how well you spekk.

It does take way too many liberties assuming what you are going to type. It will generate a multi word expression that you have never texted before based on two keystrokes. However, I'm texting from the shop all the time and my hands are not very clean and the screen is sensitive.

I turned my auto correct off years ago after sending a text to a female scout leader that came across as wrong. Good thing I knew her and she got a laugh out of it.

I disabled auto correct on the phone, too annoying. More problems with than without

I use voice to text a lot, and I don’t know how it screws up so many words. A few times, I haven’t proofread the text, post, etc., and it’s comical what it says.
