    Yup, I think so.

    Sometimes we get queries from children who can not spell properly...


    Sometimes we get queries from those who do not speak nor write English very well...

    You epitomize what a good speller should be.  Congratulations.  Your spelling is absolutely and unequivocally numero uno, Ay!

    whovin

    The first group is from the 1.1.shining the one with the man going up the stairs is from the silent film 2.Nosferatu and the last 3.return of the living dead

    I blame it upon the introduction of Phonics into the classroom. 


    Il est devenu froid pour épeler des mots comment ils sonnent plutôt que de la façon dont ils doivent être écrits.

    J'ai vraiment ne m'inquiète pas si c'est cool ou pas. Quand je passe commande de produits heures pour les clients, je voudrais que les choses énoncées plus près aussi correctement que possible. J'ai passé des années la gestion des magasins de détail avec de nombreux jeunes employés à temps partiel travaillant sous moi. Comprendre ce qu'ils cherchaient en réalité à dire était absolument irratating à des moments et me fit de longues heures sans rémunération déchiffrement. C'est un pays bilingue et je vous écris en français aujourd'hui. Avoir un week-end glorieux. Sérieusement, je veux dire.

    I was married to a German for many moons. A lot of German words actually are French.

    What is very disturbing is I could read and understand your entire question!  Texting has not helped spelling correctly one bit.  However, it has helped figuring out what the bleep people are trying to say..unless they use a lot of initials BTWROFL@UrQ!!!!!!

    It appears that Ducky has hired Umbriel to ensure that no one uses more than their alloted ! per answer. PPftt I say Ppfft!!!!!!!!!!!

    Its because we all have slang rather than use "Proper text" we tend to become lazy.


    I found this all started when they brought in cordless remote controls for Televisions LOL ..


    Its just not proper :)))

    cors I jist dunno, woz neva a good spella 

    Ya think that question can be answered simply?  There are a multitude of reasons and excuses for poor spelling and grammar. 
    Sending Friday's math quiz home to be corrected every Monday evening, I was appalled on Tuesday when Jessica's answers were still incorrect.  Rather than embarrass her in front of the whole class, I called her aside, found out what she didn't understand, and sent the quiz home with her yet again. 
    Speaking with her mother that afternoon (Tuesday), I mentioned my concern with the math quiz. Mom said (and I quote), "I knew she didn't do them right. I didn't want to damage her self-esteem by telling her they were still wrong".
     

    mycatsmom

    LOL. So the mother wasn't doing her any favors. And the mother prob didn't know how to do the math, either. Was it standard math,or pre-algebra, or story problems,or what, PKB ? What grade level?
    Bob/PKB

    4th grade; stuff we studied all week and probably review of previously mastered (?) concepts The girl was quite bright; the mistakes were careless. I told the (idiot) mother that she could ask her daughter to explain how to get the answers; she would probably find her own mistake in the explanation process.

    it is because your are under a spell. you spell exactly as you hear the words and the way you speak. Maybe you are spelling words correctlly and we are the ones spelling the words  wrong.

    As is the case with all Aliens! Each and every Alien actually has a language of their own, spelling wise, which is why it is so difficult to master the different (1092 and counting) languages.

    Caw Caw Cacawwwww!!! ;D

    One of the main reason for the poor spelling is that in the 80s, or 90s, our educ system came up with the "brilliant " ( not ) idea of letting early elem kids spell words anyway they want. It's called " creative spelling "  and by doing so,.... that gave kids the life-long message that they can spell a word anyway they want , as long as it approximates the way  it sounds.  The teachers don't draw lines on the board anymore to show the kids how certain letters must have the tale of the letter  go below the line,......and other letters, such as d and b have the stem go up abve the body of  the letter. That is why kids print a lower case g up over the line, instead of ON the line......The tale of the g    should go under the line. Some teachers leave out subjects that they don't like. When I did student teaching , in the 80s, my critic teacher ( a man ) said, " I don't teach grammer and puncuation, b/c I don't lke it "   His thing was math. He smelled strongly like whiskey every morning.And he said, " I don't make the kids do book reports, because I hated it when I was a kid. "

    Creative spelling! Creative math! Is the world still flat? Where was this teacher when I went to school???? Oh, wait, I was able to go to college...i wunder if hiz kiddz went two???
