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?

Payed instead of paid.

‘Seems as’ instead of ‘seeing as’ “seems as we are going into town, we may as well eat at the cafe” nooooo!!! Drives me mad.

Shephard instead of shepherd. Gah!

Bought and brought make me soooo mad

Loose instead of lose really grinds my gears...

I also know someone who ‘mummycuddles’ her children...

Yous instead of you
Gowjuss makes me cringe.

Queue instead of cue.

Gunna instead of going to. Even gonna would be bad but not as bad as gunna!!

Discusting and powley (disgusting and poorly)

@KrispyKremes definitely not a northern thing...

Argh just reading this thread is enraging me!

‘Right of passage’ drives me mad!

Sammiges
Chimley
Hun

Same as a pp; rest bite (I first came across this in a 3rd yr medical students report about a patient with "dementure")

Lead instead of led. It's everywhere!

I was lead down the garden path, or led down the garden path?

I'm second language English so willing to hold my hands up if I'm wrong. I'm looking too hard now and neither seems correct

(I first came across this in a 3rd yr medical students report about a patient with "dementure")

Someone on here tried to insult me once by asking if maybe I had ‘dementure’ I felt the need to point out that I wasn’t so demented that I couldn’t spell ‘dementia’.

I've seen 'deffernitley' on Facebook. It was gold!

Loose instead of lose.

CommanderDaisy, there's nothing wrong with 'spellings'!

Saw an advertisement recently: Open Tuesday's and Thursdays.
I think they were hedging their bets.

(Autocorrect tried to change Thursdays to Thursday's. I think autocorrect is the cause of many misspellings)

@ Bonbon Omg are you joking?! Are these people thick or deaf?!

Eek! Just sent a message and my blasted phone changed peel to peal.

That's brilliant!!

On Facebook - his instead of he's 'his been such a good boy today'

I keep seeing funeral posts on fb where they have said so and so past away instead of passed....drives me nuts.

The last one is probably a result of a certain variety of English accent, as well as ignorance.

Medical students do not know how to spell dementia? I despair.
