Yes you! I am talking to you. I find it very rude and highly offensive when you talk all over me. I find it patronizing when you correct me at every step and at every word I speak. It's just not nice! When I said something I meant exactly that. You didn't have to interfere with your highhanded holiness and "correct" it the way you want. Because your "corrections" are obviously not correct. (scowl) Damn you SpellChecker, Stop with your interruptions already! (Photo by Pixabay)

And these pesky spellcheckers don't even speak the Queen's English. They seem intent on ensuring I produce some sort of awful sub-standard nonsense I believe is popular in North America

@WorDazza Oh yea! Colour is color, favourite is favorite....like geez! We learned "colour" even in schools. Apparently spell checker didn't go to any school.

@jaboUK Since I write online articles, I had to have embed Grammarly in my browser. So, turning it off is not an option.

@marlina I'm sorry it did not help you ... perhaps if you 'ask alice' and tell them what system you use they may be able to explain it better than I did...

I agree. Spellchecker is annoying at times. It gives you words you don't intend because the one you used is perfectly right for the situation.

My spellchecker was commanded to shut it up a long time ago. Now I get to do extra work. One can never win against these phones!

@hora_fugit LOL! Trying to type "Hinglish" is a feat I have forgotten that to type that language because of myLot. But communicating with someone who is not good at English on facebook ..that's tough! Imagine typing Punjabi + English!

@SIMPLYD Even if they had, it is against the rules to post anything about a disagreement or fight on the discussion. I much prefer playing with them myself and then at a correct moment bring in the admin!
