Spellings that make you cringe

[jarhead123]

I know some people can't help it, I get that.

BUT I've just seen a photo on FB of a Mum & daughter and someone has comment 'so pressures' - I am assuming they mean precious!!

Any other classics you've seen?

Saw on fb today 'fort' when they meant 'thought'

Yes it can, but in the vast majority of cases it isn't.

A work one - client going into care for some 'restbite' was rolling around the office laughing my head off at that one. But hey im not perfect and make daft mistakes too

To and too.

Restbite

Hun, as in Attila?

Injoy!!

I do enjoy the spelling mistakes children make though. I work with year 1 and 2 and the most common is mixing up 'th' and 'f'. One girl was writing about her Sunday dinner and how she enjoyed her roast beeth. I laughed so much at that one!

Discusting
“n” instead of and. Drives me crazy!

The whole issue of people not using there, their or they’re correctly.

Misuse of were, where, we’re.

Chester draws or draws. I recently saw “drews” for sale!!

As mentioned before, aloud and allowed confusion.

Not using pronouns together with with”, think with you, with me, with us etc.

Oh god yes to all of the above...

I don't think it's incorrect necessarily, but why is everyone saying "I was gifted" or "I gifted her" nowadays? I'm sure it's a new term and is so unnecessary!

@ijustwannatalktosomebody a Facebook acquaintance of mine posted up she was trying to decide on her baby's name and really liked Pheobe but she hasn't seen it spelt that way anywhere. Er, that's because it's the wrong way to spell it! I attempted a diplomatic reply saying if you choose an unusual (wrong!) spelling you'll always have to correct people. Loads of her friends responded 'You go for whatever spelling you want, hun' and similar. She opted for Pheobe. Makes my teeth itch every time I see it.

'To funny!'
I always envisage a guy on horseback, waving his fist above his head with his sword drawn, leading an army into battle or something.

Also, people saying preform instead of perform. That really grinds my gears.

Can't believe nobody has mentioned all those kids who went trickle treating last week ....

People who don't know the difference between breath and breathe

To funny!?!

🤣🤣

@bonbonours, seriously?!

All of the above does my head in! So much so my mum bought me this mug a couple of years ago to use in Uni, caught a couple of people having a peek then saying to me ‘oh I always get that one wrong! I’ll remember now’

Cum instead of come. Not only is it wrong, it's revolting.

I love that mug!

'Nursury' instead of Nursery. She does it constantly and I absolutely hate it!

'Spellings" instead of spelling.....sorry - couldn't resist.

Trickle treats has really annoyed me recently!

Nucular makes me go ballistic.

Pacific instead of specific
