I don't think this has been covered before, but I've noticed a lot of people both here and on other forums mixing up the use of woman/women. They are talking about one person but will say for example 'a women came up to me...' Or talk about 2 woman, I've even spotted it on TV subtitles.
Another one I've come across is the use of accidently instead of accidentally - grr!
