Bad spelling and grammar drive me nuts !!!!

[KUDOS]

I don't know what the rest of you think, but bad spelling and grammar drives me nuts.

To me it always shows a poor level of education and, even worse, in these days of spell checking, a pitiful lack of attention to detail.

Here is an example of just how bad a lack of attention to detail can be.......

A new young monk arrives at the monastery. He’s assigned to help the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church by hand. He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript.

So, the new monk goes to the head Abbot to question this; pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up. In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.

The Abbot, says, “We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son.”

So, the Abbot goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original manuscript is held as archives in a locked vault that hasn’t been opened for hundreds of years.

Hours go by and nobody sees the old Abbot. So, the young monk becomes concerned and goes downstairs to look for him.

He sees the Abbot banging his head against the wall, and wailing “We forgot the R. We forgot the R.“ His forehead is all bloodied and bruised and he’s crying uncontrollably.

The young monk asks the old Abbot, “What’s wrong, father?”

With a choking voice, the old Abbot replies, “The word should be celebRate!”

(I yam prod too say eye rote these wee dote tar miss steak)

Eye halve a spilling chequer

It plane lea marques fore my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Aye stroke a quay and type a ward
And weight four it two say,
Weather eye ham wring oar aye yum write
It shoes me strait a weigh.

A swoon as a missed hake is maid
It nose bee fore two lung,
And aye con putt the ear oar rite
Its wear lea ever Wong.

To white with car is quiet a fete
Of witch won should bee pride,
And wee mussed dew the breast whee can,
Course floor sore knot aloud.

Eye hove run this poem threw hit
Your shore reel glade two now,
Its lettuce prefect hall the weigh
Me chequers toiled me sew.

Sew whine Eva urine affix
Four lawn and list fore wards
We member ewe gut a chequer
And con rite bitter kin tzar words

too

[KUDOS]

TOO is correct and in context....I rest my case !!!!

Likewise; also; in addition; Over; more than enough; noting excess, as in too much
en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Too

Did you mean Two? I think you meant TWO.

[KUDOS]

Grammatically, "too" is correct as in this context it means "also"

You are thinking of it only in the context of "excessive" ie. it is too hot, too cold etc.

Sorry guys but "TWO" is incorrect.......you are the weakest link......Goodbye.....LOL

I think that we must not forget that our current spelling of words is but a placeholder of our time on the planet. In time, many of the words that are misspelled today will become the norm. It is written.

Love your input Kudos, always nice to have a brain around. Luckily we have few bright folks here that keep it on the up and up.

Hear, hear!
