They're know miss steaks in this newsletter cause we used special soft wear witch Czechs you're spelling. It is mower or lass a weigh to verify hit. How ever it can knot correct arrows in punctuation ore usage: an it will not fined words witch are miss used butt spelled rite. Four example; a paragraph cud half mini flaws but wood bee past by the spill checker. And it want catch the sent tense fragment which you rite. Their fore, the massage is that proofreading is knot eliminated, butt is still berry much reek wired.
Translation: There are no mistakes in this newsletter because we used special software which checks our spelling. It is more or less a way to verify it. However, it cannot correct errors in punctuation or usage, and it will not find words which are misused but spelled correctly. For example, a paragraph could have many flaws but would be passed by the spell checker. And it won't catch the sentence fragment which you write. Therefore, the message is that proofreading is not eliminated, but is still very much required. |

My wife (a probation officer) wrote a report that went to court which referred several times to 'possession of a fireman'. She also wrote an essay at university about William 'Sheepshearer'. Spellcheck is not her friend......

Credits: Thanks to JimW for the extravagant use of the shift key, Mark Mitchell for the spare comma and Steve Fox for the ellipsis. Special thanks must go to M.S. Word for use of the spell hinge checker, and the Care in the Community Programme. |

Predictive text can be as troublesome as spell checkers. I intended to text my mate with the question "Do you fancy going out for a pint later?". What I actually sent was "Do you fancy gionng out for a riot later?" Perhaps that explains all the trouble last summer.
