"I am dyslexic but I do try to get my spelling right but sometimes it slips. Sorry nobody is perfect we all make mistakes. " I wasn't having a go at genuine dyslexia. My point is people claim to have dyslexia and then do not display the conventions of it. I think it was NN who pointed this out on a previous thread as well. I don't expect perfection in spelling but I agree with the OP. | |||

"Im just a thick cunt!" Your spelling seems fine though! My red pen isn't twitching! As for Lady Mucks - I don't think its unacceptable to expect someone to use proper English (rather than text speak) Text speak takes ages for me to decode so I don't really bother. I like my brain to be stimulated by people I'm going to play with but not to the extent where I get a headache trying to decipher what they've written. Some of the messages and threads need the Enigma machine! | |||

"Ok. Straight away I'll say I'm not 100%. I often make typo's especially rushing in the chat room or typing on my phone. Mrs Noobs rarely makes any. Bad spelling and text speak always puts Mrs Noobs off. I've never really been that bothered. . But the spelling in the forums over the last 24 hours has been atrocious. If you have a tablet, pc or phone with predictive text or spell check surely it doesn't need to be this bad." Totally agree! If your initial message to us is riddled with errors it doesn't make for a great first impression | |||

When you've finished biting my head off you'll see that I'm actually not having a go at dyslexia. I was saying that dyslexia does not effect intelligence and that wasn't directed solely at you but also at people without an understanding of the condition. In my opinion the way to help people understand dyslexia is to inform them about it. I have a sound knowledge of it as its one of the areas which I specialise in for work and thus I was passing my knowledge on. | |||

Actually Theres no evidence to prove einstein or divinci were dyslexic I tried that before on another spelling post and got shot down! Its a mith " Fair enough - but there are plenty of others - like Steven Spielberg, for example. The argument still stands: dyslexia does not mean stupid. I have known a lot of people with dyslexia - some at University - they are by no means stupid. The fact is, as I said before, some people are hopeless at spelling and always will be. However, in the context of what they write you can usually work out what they mean so it is really not that much of a problem. It's not as if they are applying for a job on here that it matters so much! Poor grammar, though, makes some messages impossible to read. How many messages have people read where they have just though 'eh?' and then not responded to them? | |||

I can share something that was explained to me when I was a kid.... Now I dont know how true this it but it certainly helped me when I was young. Im not sure how well I can explain this without a pen and paper but will try. Get yourself a piece of paper and draw a circle (this represents the brain) draw a small circle inside that circle. The small circle represents the part of the brain the normal person uses to read. Now the small circle in a dyslexics brain will be used for something else, the question is what? That person will be very good at something they just need to work out what it is. Now whether this is true or false its a good thing to tel kids at school as I know from my own experience that school can be hard if you feel stupid this gives kids a bit of confidence and helps a lot. See im not all that bad, I might even of helped a few people | |||

" Loving the 'excuses'.. Some people are not as smart as others, people are just being honest and making valid points.. hardly excuses. so are people with dyslexia not smart? Dyslexia does not effect someone's intelligence. It is a condition which effects their ability to read and spell, some sufferers describe text as moving when they read it and they can be helped by using anti glare screens and coloured screens to place over books. Thank you so much for explaining to me what dyslexia is! Iv been dyslexic for almost 27 years and didnt know cause im to stupid to ask!!! When you've finished biting my head off you'll see that I'm actually not having a go at dyslexia. I was saying that dyslexia does not effect intelligence and that wasn't directed solely at you but also at people without an understanding of the condition. In my opinion the way to help people understand dyslexia is to inform them about it. I have a sound knowledge of it as its one of the areas which I specialise in for work and thus I was passing my knowledge on. I was being sarcastic also I know quite a bit about it myself! I can share something that was explained to me when I was a kid.... Now I dont know how true this it but it certainly helped me when I was young. Im not sure how well I can explain this without a pen and paper but will try. Get yourself a piece of paper and draw a circle (this represents the brain) draw a small circle inside that circle. The small circle represents the part of the brain the normal person uses to read. Now the small circle in a dyslexics brain will be used for something else, the question is what? That person will be very good at something they just need to work out what it is. Now whether this is true or false its a good thing to tel kids at school as I know from my own experience that school can be hard if you feel stupid this gives kids a bit of confidence and helps a lot. See im not all that bad, I might even of helped a few people " What a waste of time trying to help people on here! Im going back to being a horrible git that winds everyone up! Bollocks to it! | |||

"Ok. Straight away I'll say I'm not 100%. I often make typo's especially rushing in the chat room or typing on my phone. Mrs Noobs rarely makes any. Bad spelling and text speak always puts Mrs Noobs off. I've never really been that bothered. But the spelling in the forums over the last 24 hours has been atrocious. If you have a tablet, pc or phone with predictive text or spell check surely it doesn't need to be this bad." Whay du you tink it mutters ? | |||

Agree, I'm (Mrs) a complete nutcase when it comes to grammar and spelling with anything and it grinds my gears when people can't be bothered to use it properly in a message or a profile when they're suppose to be selling themselves! I can understand typos ect but sometimes it's just plain laziness. | |||

The point of this line of research is that proficient readers read most words (except very long ones) principally through the first and last letters and a rapid recognition of the general shape and content of the entire word. That's why we typically read misspelled words with no trouble. So therefore it doesn't matter about the spelling as long as we can understand the message." I've see the Cambridge University paragraph before. And I agree, mistakes I can live with, but if people are going to send indecipherable messages I just cannot see the point. We are, after all, meant to be communicating. If someone cannot do that, even at the simplest level, then I don't even want to know. It's not being arsey - it's being realistic. I have to connect with someone - I cannot do that if I cannot understand them. | |||

"If someone is trying to be a smart arse correcting grammar and or spelling, yes it bothers me a tad. If people use text speak and I can not understand it, I will say. Are we not all human who make mistakes? I do typos, bad/wrong grammar and wrong spelling at times. Good grief, I even use coloquial words or abbreviate. Does this make me thick or uneducated? Nope. I am highly educated ta very much. I tend to use my phone and hate auto correct. If people think less of me for the odd slip I don't really give a rats ass (sorry a rat's arse). Can't be doing with people who think they're positively perfect in everyway because they can spell or use grammar correctly. So much for the season of goodwill and all that shit. Geee whizz. Feel free to correct any mistakes in my post. While you are there shove a red pen up your arse. It's a swinging site not a grammar/spelling site. No wonder some are self concious for posting on here " Was a bit worried about that red pen... and if it leaked...;-) | |||
