a lot
er...
a lot
I donot use it toomuch.
Words that bugme
Irregardless
Unthaw
Irregardless
Unthaw
At least they are words. However,
is not.
Ididntknowthat.
Actually, I alwaysthot that unthaw meant "freeze."
"Irregardless" I'll "pry" stop using words like "boughten" and phrases like "those ones" and "could care less" too... or is it "to." They're there their so hard to figure out. Please ensure insure assure that we get it right.
That will effect affect my thinkin'

Your rite -- allot off peepel spel pourlie!
I just used the word unsmooth in another thread. Is that a word? If not, please accept my apologies...
Technically you can mix and match suffixes and prefixes (suffixi and prefixi?) to your heart's content. Whether or not anyone will understand you is your problem.
Just because it isn't in the dictionary doesn't mean it isn't a word. Many dictionaries do not list common compound words as the meaning is usually considered obvious based on the root word.
but back on topic, alot isn't a word, it's 2 words missing a space.

The one that bugs me is "noone", instead of no one.
thats justatypo
iz typo a worde? knot slang but a reel worde?
It shore ain't!
I think typo is a contraindication of typographical error.....(think she knows about shrinkage?)
At last, some civility is brought to this section!
Even I make mistakesss.
For me its the improper use of its/it's that angles me!
