Walsingham Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 I have discovered that - probably thanks to autocorrect - I now type the word 'the' as 'teh' more often than not. I've turned off autocorrect on everything, but that hasn't fixed it. I was wondering if there is already in existence, or could be made, a program that emits a piercing shriek every time I do this, to condition me not to. "It wasn't lies.

SteveThaiBinh Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Just keep the auto-correct off, and it will get better with time. Make sure that a fair proportion of what you write is intended for readers who think 'teh' is a mistake. I have the whole auto-correction and auto-formatting lot turned off all the time, otherwise I'd be scared to touch the tab key. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
metadigital Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Practise typing. Put the keyboard on your lap, under the desk, so that you cannot see it, then type, looking at the screen. Practice regularly, until you are pleased with your typing skillz0rz. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Gorth Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 You might as well embrace it. Give up and be assimilated It's part of a natural, evolutionary process. Languages change over time. If not, you would still be talking like a bad Shakespeare novel Just look what happens to language elsewhere. We Danes have to go to Iceland to see what our "original" language sounded like a millennia ago. Americans drop the U of many OU syllables (e.g. colour -> color, amour - > armor, volourn -> volon etc.) When enough people spell it wrong, it becomes the correct new way of spelling it.

He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
