 The simplicity of my day to day. |
| It is said, the English language is very difficult to learn because of all the commonly spelled words there are. Do you agree or disagree? How many words can you think of that you think are easily confusing? And words that you think are commonly misspelled? Do you find yourself checking to be sure when you're writing or let spell check find them? I feel sorry for anyone trying to learn written English. There are so many rules which are confusing. As for spell check, especially when I’m writing on WdC, the British spelling, the way I spell, is changed to the US way of spelling. The hardest word which I find goes against the grain is when I want to centralise text and need to write centre as center! There are many words which are spelled the same but mean something different such as: Desert, as in a hot Sandy place and desert, something nice to eat. Lie down and to tell a lie. Lead, a metal and lead, to take control. Refuse, will not do something. Refuse, rubbish. Project, to plan, to throw, or cast an image. Fine, thin or slim or high quality. Entrance, bewitch, or a point of access. Row, fight or disagree, or propel a boat. Which/witch To/too/two The list is endless. And then there’s the grammar. It’s/it’s. they’re/there. Apostrophes, commas, semi colons, colons. OMG how did I ever learn to read and write? |
