So long as the message gets across, grammar and spelling are secondary...... plus it can not make sense of "G'day mate - put another shrimp on the barbie"... perfectly understood in Oz

Sorry to learn this. I just assumed everybody who is able to use a PC would know how to use a spell checker.

So long as the message gets across, grammar and spelling are secondary......

The message is more important than the spelling but sometimes correct spelling is necessary for clarification, so many word when spelled phonetically can lead to confusion.

plus it can not make sense of "G'day mate - put another shrimp on the barbie"... perfectly understood in Oz

I see your point so I'll make an exception for those of you from Australia

[Steptoe]

Fair Dinkum Lee, you septics spell everything the wrong way anyways!! ;D ;D ;D

Really John, You can't call a guy from Texas a Septic (Aussie slang: septic-tank=yank), he's just as likely to pour a can of Texas-stompass all over you!

I have a spelling chequer
It came with my PC.
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 weight.
My chequer tolled me sew.

A chequer is a bless sing,
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when aye rime.

Each frays come posed up on my screen
Eye trussed to bee a joule.
The chequer pours o’er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.

Bee fore a veiling chequers
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 flare,
Their are know faults with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a wear.

Now spelling does knot phase me,
It does know bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped words fare as hear.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaws are knot aloud.

Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear pour pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting want too pleas.
