Those who have been trained to pay attention to spelling would certainly find spelling errors horrifying. However, if they are genuinely interested in sharing their knowledge or viewpoint with the YA community at large, they would go beyond spelling errors and give honest answers.

All the same, spelling in some questions is so bad that it would be useful to politely point out the lapses, while giving answers. This could help the questioner to improve his spelling in future

However. YA is NOT a university assignment. Although I cringe at some sentences I don’t see any point in correcting people. This is not the forum for it.

I will, however, take out a red pen I carry especially, and correct signs I see at the supermarket….

I’m a sad, sad case 🙂

Many people on here have English as a second language and are trying to do their best.

Also people like me who are from other countries and spell words differently to America.

Example: defence, neighbour etc.

Then there are the people who truly can’t spell well.

Spell check will not correct sea instead of see; to, too and two. If you see what I mean.
