Based on the fact that spelling is nothing more than the correct spelling of words, spelling errors are a violation of the rules. Perhaps someone does not pay any attention to them when reading a particular text, but they simply annoy many. It does not matter if a person has not noticed his own typo, but too many errors in the simplest words can already lead to certain conclusions about the level of literacy. Today we will look at the most common spelling mistakes, examples of which can be found not only on forums where people write the same way they speak, but also in ready-made texts of sites that claim to be serious.
Of course, the most popular mistake is the notorious soft sign in the verb endings -ts and -tsya. How, finally, to learn in which case it is needed, and in which it is not? There is nothing to learn here. Take for example a small sentence: "She began to dress." keythe word here is "dress". So what did she start doing? Dress. Do you see a soft sign at the end of the question “what to do”? This means that it must also be in the verb. But in the word “dresses”, which answers the question “what does he do”, there should not be a soft sign, because it is not there at the end of the question either. The same happens with verbs answering the questions "what to do" (dress) and "what will he do" (dress).
Many people manage to make truly unique spelling mistakes in words like "cute", "boyfriend", "thank you", "hunt", "in general". Probably, modern youth believes that the word "sympathetic" comes from the word "pretty", and not from "sympathy", and the word "groomer" - from "leave" and not "care". But what guides those who write "thank you", "hunt" and "in general" - science has not yet figured out. Sometimes on the websites of various agencies you can see the word "agency". It is very strange that at first glance, a serious company does not know that agents work in it, and that is why the word "agency" is spelled with the letter "t".
Spelling errors such as "the same" and "also" are incredibly common. To understand whether it is necessary to write together or separately, it is enough to remember the test words: “also” - “too”, “same” - “exactly”. If in doubt how to write the word "also", try mentally replacing it with the word "too". If the meaning of the sentence is not lost, then we write together. If you can put the word “exactly” in front (toit turned out “exactly the same”), which means we write separately. For example: “I also (too) have this book”, “The sunset is (for sure) as beautiful as the sunrise.”
Maybe it's very fashionable today to make spelling mistakes, but still, how can you write (and even pronounce) the phrase: "My / your birthday"? After all, what is being celebrated? Day. Day of what? Birth. Whose birthday is this? My yours. Therefore, the sentence must be both written and pronounced as "My/your birthday".
If this article convinced someone that making spelling mistakes is “not comme il faut”, then the author did not write it in vain. Think about your literacy, because it plays an important role in our lives.
