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?

I'm amazed by the number of people working in special needs circles who talk about 'Educational Health Care Plans' instead of Education, Health and Care Plans. I mean, it doesn't even make any sense! Even worse when it's abbreviated to ECHPs .

The bad spelling on Mumsnet really gets to me and puts me off reading a thread . I have actually dumped a lovely man once as he ended a text with “that’s how I role” 😬

[Cookit]

Plural words with apostrophes. Not technically spelling but I can’t stand it.

[Rubicsboob]

Walah and variants thereof.
Pronounciation.
Recently saw "ball bells" instead of "baubles".
The hospital where I had DC1 had a big metal sign up welcoming people to the 'Impatients Ward'. Still there three years later when I had DC2. The irony was not lost while I waited and waited. And waited to be discharged postnatally.

Defiantly....could of, would of etc....definately

[Elderflower14]

Asseptable...!!!

One I really like rather than cringe at often comes from a friend who writes for a living but has an entertaining autocorrect. She usually describes a disagreement/argument between her and her husband as a marital discussion but her autocorrect changes it to a martial discussion. I think she might be leaving it like that deliberately.

[WitheredfromtheLake]

Many of the above, plus

sort after (locations, etc)

and

he text me (I cannot bear the loss of the syllable here!)

Cock o van. Yes really at the care home.It isn't even chicken in wine.It's chicken and carrots.
Dinning room. My ex wrote this continually the fecking abusive twattish tiny nobbed ladyboy.
I was told distinctly and categorically that Dachshunds were
Dash-hounds because they dash about and that NOBODY says Dachshunds except me.The woman got very angry about it.

[MsLexic]

oh God I mispellderated

[rainbowquack]

Just found this on Facebook. 🤦‍♀️

[GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER]

'Except' when they mean 'accept' - which I saw somewhere yesterday.

Oh, and ditto to 'restbite' which I've seen so many times on a forum for carers of people with dementia. I suppose it makes sense for the poor things at the end of their tethers, though - a 'bite' of rest.

[WhirlyGigWhirlyGig]

rainbow the writer of that little gem needs a dictionary for Christmas

[Marcipex]

Worst on a legal document , that several times referred to Mrs E, 'the diseased'.
The deceased was indeed diseased, she died of cancer, but still...

[Marcipex]

MsLexic, dash-hounds because they dash about

[Marcipex]

Did you tell her dach is German for badger? They are badger hounds, the right shape for getting into a badger sett.

[AJPTaylor]

At work on a file this week
Insured has Noah deer about what happened.

[toomuchtooold]

Did you tell her dach is German for badger? They are badger hounds, the right shape for getting into a badger sett.

Is that what that's about? I kept thinking dach, attic, did they use to live in attics or something?

[joystir59]

Tenderhooks instead of tenterhooks.

I got it in Asdas

Perhaps a Freudian slip?

A colleague was spelling an address out over the phone recently and said "that's y for wanky". Bless her but she was so embarrassed.

[Myusername101z]

A girl on my Facebook puts “mayed” instead of made,makes me laugh every time

[Myusername101z]

Not really the same but it really annoys me when people say generally when they mean genuinely ! I hear it a lot (usually on towie) **hangs head in shame
