Which words do you most often mis-type?

[Fender32]

I'm asking about this because I want to know that I'm not the only one here with the brain-to-hand-to-keyboard skills of a goat .

Have you ever noticed that are certain words, which you ALWAYS type wrongly, even though you know how to spell them?

This has become much more apparent to me since I joined joined Talkbass and my vocabulary shrunk to its' current "low" , but anyway, here are a few personal examples of words that never make it past the "preview" stage (along with their corrected versions ).

• balck - black
• mplae - maple
• lenght - length
• rememebered - remembered
• ans - and

You get the idea .

Any else care to own-up ?

I often misstpe... miss-type ninja "lol", it comes out as "kik". Not really a typing issue but until last month I always miss-spelt "definitely".

Oh yeah! If this thread was about mis-spelling, that would "definately" go at the top of my "Pet Hates" list :scowl:.

Separate. It's the one word I always have to think twice about when spelling. I think it's the similarity to "desperate" that confuses me.

It was supposed to be "bar chat".

I went through a phase where I'd spell "maybe" as "maby". I knew it was wrong and I'd still have to look it up every time I tried to spell it.

My fingers are completely incapable of typing these words correctly the first time:


- teh = the
- adn = and
- Daev = Dave
- rememebr = remember
- start = strat (I seriously debated whether or not to admit that one on a bass forum ...)
- hwo = who AND how (I mix up both)
- corrcet = correct

 

[dls59]

"Customer" usually comes out as "cusotmer", and "hospital" looks like "hostipal".

 

[iamlowsound]

I usually type my "sig" wrong, comes out lowsouhnd a lot. There are a few other words that I have trouble with. Thank God for firefox spell check, except for when it says that Canadian spelling is wrong.
