We also shouldn't forget that for many people English is a second (or subsequent) language and the many homophones make it very difficult to learn. How can you explain to someone who is learning English that "I bow to your presence" and "Eye bough two you're presents" are pronounced exactly the same way??
Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell?
When I sell an item here, or write anything for that matter, there are no typos. It's as if my browser detects typos so I can fix them. Oh wait, all browsers have spelling error detection for at least 5 years (a simple setting toggle).
There's an advert here now for an 'Integtrated.' And often others for 'intergrateds.' And speakers with good low 'base.' The latter is a grammar error, and even lazier. On an audio site, do we not know how bass is spelled? Really?
Of course, upon moving to NC last year, I discovered that 'chair' is actually two syllables.
Go ahead, flame away. Make sure to spell check first so it's legible.
