spell check needed

grouchy · Jul 8, 2011

sure would help me.

i saw two doctors this week and never thought to say anything.

hope this isnt happening to any of you.

seems to be happening to me for the past month or so all too often.

i was a good speller, rarely needed to use a spell check.

now it seems that more and more will type a word, even four letter words, and stare blankley at them and not have a clue if i'm right or wrong. have to go to yahoo spell check sometimes for words i have used all my life.

to me this is getting rather serious. am afraid this could be the begining of alzehimers and at my age am so afraid of becomming a burden to my family.

had a neighbor with it. he had to be watched as though he were a toddler and at times would burst out with unproved anger.

Grouchy,It happens to Me all the time and I,ll be 54 in Dec. I just slam out words and hope you all know what I,m trying to say. :crazy:

Ace is right, Grouchy....This can be a normal age-related affliction....No need to panic yet ( Can you still identify the guy in the mirror? ),,, :laughat:

i am a horrible speller. that's why i am glad my computer puts this annoying red squiggly line under it whenever i screw up.

well being only 44 i too have trouble with spelling and trying to remember what i did yesterday. For me 1 day is no different from the other before i know it a week has gone and i relate to something i did last week as being yesterday. Grouchy don't worry it's normal i'm sure. Sorry if i have caused any alarm.

I too am a horrible speller. I think several people have asked about "spell check" in the past. It would be a helpful addition.

Most browsers have spell check.

I know mine ~~werks~~ works in here.
Believe You Me... I frequently see red when I type... :x

I love a good double entendre. :D

I remember reading a study that shows tobacco users are rarely afflicted with Alzheimers.

I'm sure some others here are more familiar with the research.

I have a spelling checker.

It came with my pea sea.

It plane lee marks four my revue

Miss steaks aye can knot sea.
Eye ran this poem threw it,

Your sure reel glad two no.

Its vary polished in it's weigh.

My checker tolled me sew.
A checker is a bless sing,

It freeze yew lodes of thyme.

It helps me right awl stiles two reed,

And aides me when I rime.
Each frays come posed up on my screen

eye trussed too bee a joule.

The checker pours o'er every word

To cheque sum spelling rule.
Bee fore a veiling checker's Hour

spelling mite decline,

And if we're lacks oar have a laps,

We wood bee maid too wine.
Butt now bee cause my spelling

Is checked with such grate flair,

Their are no fault's with in my cite,

Of nun eye am a ware.
Now spelling does knot phase me,

It does knot bring a tier.

My pay purrs awl due glad den

With wrapped word's fare as hear.
To rite with care is quite a feet

Of witch won should be proud,

And wee mussed dew the best wee can,

Sew flaw's are knot aloud.
Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays,

Such soft wear four pea seas,

And why eye brake in two averse

Buy righting too pleas.

Use Apple Safari instead of Internet Explorer. It has one built in.

marmal4de · Jul 8, 2011

I am fairly dyslexic, but you probably can't tell thanks to the built in spell check in Safari.

jasongone · Jul 8, 2011

google chrome has one as well.

marmal4de · Jul 8, 2011

But then you're using chrome, which for me has a bit too minimalistic of an interface.

My spelling is bad.My grammar is probably worse.It's not from alzehimers though it's always been that way.So far the kind folks here have put up with the defects in my posts.Now if i could just remember to change that darn Caps Lock button.

grouchy · Jul 8, 2011

abecox, that is too funny for words :rofl:

igloo · Jul 9, 2011

Right on Abe . After years of taking notes on flow pads and the back of my hand . I cant spell or write a proper sentence any more . And whats more important is I dont care .There is only so much room in your head and I decided long ago that I did not want to be a english teacher or a walking Websters dictionary .

grouchy · Jul 9, 2011

when i thought i had something in my head, the doctor put her scope light and looked in my ear for quite a bit of time. she said i was right and thought she could see day light through the cobwebs :crazy:

hobie1dog · Jul 9, 2011

Old age is a real bitch. I had 3 years of Phonics in Catholic School, so I've always been fairly good at spelling. I now have bad knuckles from getting hit with the edge of a wooden ruler by those pesky Nuns. They would never get away with that crap in this day and age. :evil:

ranger · Jul 9, 2011

Hobie1dog, I also went to parochial school in the early 50's, and those nuns were insane!

I used to get whacked on the knuckles for not doing anything!
