I'm being very unreasonable but

[Unicorncatsack]

I'm on a Facebook mum's group and people KEEP misspelling "choking" as "chocking". WHY?!?! This spelling mistake doesn't even make sense.

You get a whole post spelled completely correctly and then - "chocking/chocked/chock"

It's giving me the rage.

I agree with the wander/wonder one. Argh. Listened to a brilliant audio book recently, brilliant except the narrator said wonder when she meant wander ... every single time. I almost had a nervous tic by the end of it.

definately makes me want to scream too

What about defiantly instead of definitely? I see that a lot too.

I've seen 'defiantly' where it's clear from the context that it should be 'definitely' 😳

Ha x post

Well, I am discusted by all this :)

YES! generally instead of genuinely! I would never correct anyone (apart from DP obviously which I take joy in doing, Mr know it all ) on any of this stuff but its these little things that bother me!

should of.... would of ... could of

Angle instead of angel is another one. Viscous instead of vicious, and yes chocking instead of choking makes me

I have generally seen defiantly when it should of been definately

what about this one on a party invitation to my son '' fancy dress- superhero's''

why. just why .

OOOh 'chocks away!'

So, this would be an example of a very infuriating post right?

My husband nearly chocked on a grape while chaising the dog. I was hovering under the dinning table at the time having just brought a new hover. His had to go to hospital. It's rediculous. Grapes should defiantly be banned. I generally think they are dangerous. I wander if I should start a petition.

Unicorn you're a monster!

That actually made my eyes hurt!

I also see "hi mummy's" a lot

I hate being addressed as "mummy" anyway, like I ceased to exist other than as mum when my son was born

I teach in Bradford and "should of" "could of" drives me mad. Also "I aren't..." And the unexplainable phrase "I daredn't" (usually with a misplaced apostrophe).

BeautyGoes, I would prefer that to a happy '1 year anniversary'. Aaargh.

When did people stop knowing that the word anniversary basically means 'year's turn' or 'annual return'?

Or even definitely FRET
Loosing instead of losing. Grrr.

I know it's been mentioned, but "brought" instead of "bought". Why?!?!?

Oh, and "been" instead of "being".

A lot (or should that be alot? )of these also exist the other way round, e.g. people using "he's" instead of "his" (like, "he ate he's dinner").

Instil and install.

"We need to instal some confidence in him".

No you need to instil some. Unless confidence is an app and he's some sort of robot.
