The problem with spelling checkers


Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

No, actually that's a problem with the user. If they're written up like that, it indicates to me that the person has no idea what they're doing. A spell checker does help, but it only goes so far, and from there, the user takes up responsibility of using the correct word, not just the correct sounding word.

That poem is classsssss.

Lesson to kiddies: Learn to spell instead of using the spell checker.

I use a spelling checker, because I don't see my own spelling mistakes. However once they are shown to me by the spelling checker I can usually choose the correct spelling of the words.

In my opinion the spelling checker could be used as a guide to spelling words correctly

Anyway this poem is supposed to be both funny and serious!

Eh. I learned the good ol' way - seven years of elementary school.

It pains me to see some of my classmates have quite a few issues with some words that are used often, for example today I saw a classic example with the word "detention". It's all going downhill ;___;
