my mother was recently lamenting the fact that basic grammar, spelling and writing are no longer taught in schools. I guess there's only so much blame one can heap on the kids themselves. I never understood how they can fail to pick up ANYTHING about spelling or punctuation from simply reading though. Perhaps they don't read?

the only time i read is on hear and subtitles but i have gaveup on them i can not read them fastanof

[AgrAde]

perhaps i should stop taking literacy and numeracy for granted...

[tomacropod]

you need to read books dude. Seriously kids have no patience or imagination these days because they don't read books. It will help your vocabulary, spelling and grammar infinitely as well. Even just Harry Potter books, or the Riftwar saga by Raymond E Feist (starting with Magician) or the timeless Roald Dahl, or C.S. Lewis, or anything.

These are all really incredibly entertaining and easy to read authors and will draw you in in a way you can't imagine if you've never been hooked on a book. That's my suggestion of the day, for the youth of today.

i will tr reading a book i will lend hary potter of my sister it will take me about one year too read it my numracy is very good

[free_rideman]

Yeah read books and also take the forum as an oppurtunity to learn how to spell. I sucked at spelling a while ago too. Now when I don't know how to spell a word exactly right, I first sound it out and spell it, and then I double check with microsoft word. Perfect way of learning. Helped me.

[luke_echo]

thankyou for all of your advise could you all do me a favour can you help red bunny get world domination plez

[rush]

First of all I really appreciate that youve posted the thread to explain about your spelling.

Second, no I wont help the red bunny.

Third, try typing your responses into MS word then spell checking them. This will improve your spelling and make your posts more readable for everyone.

Although it doesnt give you an excuse, I commend you for trying.

thankyou rush

Anything by George Orwell. Seriously.

PC's don't highlight misspellings globally? I actually thought OSX copied that from Windows.

[AgrAde]

nah, osx copied it from some linux distros. windows' spelling is program-based.

[full_clipp]

it's OK luke, we got some people (person) here that spell worse than you and don't even apologize.










say no to Vee's yall

Thought they got it from somewhere.

[Ottawa_biker]

just sit down and read a dictionary from front to back...

[luke_echo]

what person spells worse than me

[tamu]

is english not your native language?

as far as english in school.. it sucked.. it was taught but most of the concentration was on is this word an adjetive or some crap im never going to use again..

they worry too much about getting the specifics and just assume you got the basics.. oh well...

as far as typing that badly, unless you just learned english 6 months ago.. you should at least be able to read through what you just typed and say to yourself "you dont spell been 'benn'" stuff like that.

some of your mistakes are really horrific.. i am curious to know how old you are and if you are not a native english speaker?

[luke_echo]

I am 16 I was born in England and have lived here all of my life but I have never been good at spelling!

i will tr reading a book i will lend hary potter of my sister it will take me about one year too read it my numracy is very good

I took 1 day to read 1 harry potter book. Well, maybe 4 to 5 hours or so.

Readin IS entertaining. I love reading.

You can try books by david eddings. Try the belgariad series. Get you hooked for sure.

I'm not even a native english speaker. But, i speaker english better than my native tongue though.
