Yes, I know that. I suffer from the same problem. For me the words 'member' and 'remember' are obstacles. You have no idea how many spelling mistakes are possible with these words!

Yeah I know there are many spelling mistakes and I'm glad that there is spell check. unfortunately on MyLot its not there so I end up posting comments and discussions with the mistakes.

@aureliah Why don't you write your posts on WordPad where the spell check works and then post them on myLot?

Many people misspell words on myLot. I pay attention to my words and if I don't know how to spell them, I look them up.

@aureliah I hope not. I read them over a couple times before I post them. I do catch a couple mistakes, and go back and correct them. I absolutely hate typos, especially mine.

You've still got 'Occasion' wrong in your text! It's easily done. I have trouble with gauge and for some reason always want to spell it guage.

occasion is almost always misspelled here, even some nurses spell it wrong. why, even short words are misspelled by me because i type fast with my 2 index fingers, and typographical errors are always frequent to me.

If the reason is typing fast it is acceptable but my mispelling looks like it is in the mind. Sad

Re the title: It can't be 'mispell', it must be 'misspell'. The basic verb is 'spell' together with the prefix 'mis-' which means 'negative' or 'wrong'.

@aureliah You should always doubt the gadget. Some suggestions coming from the spell check are complete nonsense. The spell check is only useful for people who already know English reasonably well. If beginners believe it all the time, they may end up with more mistakes than before.

@aureliah Ah, then install a spell check in your computer.Then this will sure help. Also, as a writer challenge yourself to learn a new word each day...and your vocabulary will increase. I think I'll take this advise myself too

'Occasion' is still not right! Try and think of a phrase to associate with the spelling, something you will remember - maybe for tomorrow you could make up something like 'Take our mother out ridge-running one week' Or else of course just use a different program to write, as others have suggested!
