On a FB friend's brand new you tube clip? This is an ad for her shop.

Why would that be considered unreasonable?

No. You should. It doesn't give a very professional image and people do notice.

Not if you do it tactfully.

I was wondering if it looked a little mean, considering all other comments were singing the clip's praises.

Send her a personal message or email so nobody else sees?

YWNBU! Grin

I'm a stickler for the English language though.

Agree, do it, but privately. I just saw an "it's" instead of "its" on a channel 4 / E4 Peppa Pig advert and it made me despair.

Urgh, on a dating site earlier, got told by one of the men on there that he "wood" love to take me out. He used the wrong spelling four times, after he'd asked "wot" I look for in a man, and the first trait I'd listed was intelligence... Grin

Sorry, that was U of me, wasn't it... Blush

PM her, putting it on her wall or under the clip would look a bit mean but important to correct it.

Agree with Ursula. Inbox or text her. :)

YANBU but do it privately. And only if you are 100% sure you're right!
