Point of the blog is, learn to spell. If you're the type of person to do what I exampled in the first paragraph, then maybe you have to go back to fifth grade, or just have technology as your crutch.
Anthony, I wonder if at a mall they will ever open a "SynoBuns" shop and how they might taste.

ReplyDeleteHi Anthony, Its true that we have forgot most of the spellings by using the Technology. It was said knowledge grows with technology, but in this case technology has made us illiterate.
ReplyDeleteBoth your blog title and the prompt in the first paragraph are great ways for tech users to stay alert of their grammar knowledge. No one wants to get caught not knowing how to spell or use correct grammar, especially in front of others. Sometimes, humility can be a good teacher.
ReplyDeleteHey Anthony, I know right! this autocorrect can be a blessing or a curse. Sometimes it turns my message into nonsense especially when I incorporate word from my native language. But other times it saves me from embarrassing typos 😊
