Your frequent unintentional typing mistakes?

[musefan]

Where do I start... my fingers often type the most common words that I use. A bit like predictive text, so I will usually start the word correctly, and then finish it with the most common word I use that starts with the same letters. Unfortunately I can't think of an example right now. Usually it rarely matters as the correct word can be figured out from the context. However, the one thing I do that is the most annoying, is that I have a very bad habit of leaving the "n't" off the end of words. So for example, "wasn't" and "didn't" become "was" and "did". Which as you can imagine completely changes what I am trying to say.

'm' amd 'n'. 'i' ir 'o'. '?' and '/'. 'b' and 'v'. :laugh: [Edit] Oh '/' and '\'.

Griff types "teh" instead of "the" all the time. However, my typing is perfect, and I never make mistakes while doing it. :rolleyes: :laugh:

Yeah but that's a feature, not a bug. It's in the manual. :-D

Acocunt instead of account :mad:

Apart from "the" and "teh", I normally type single quote as a semicolon: doesn;t, didn;t, wasn;t, ... And really annoyingly, I found it really hard to deliberately type them wrong for those examples. I tried, but my brain didn't want to spell "doesn't" wrong. Damnit - now those were right as well... :doh:

Mine is 'A' instead of 'a' after another upper case letter (e.g. 'CArlo').

Decades ago, the company secretary had to type up the company fire instructions when we moved into our new building. Prominent in the instructions was the phrase

In case of fire, DO NOT LEAVE THE LIFT

From way back in the DOS days, to this very minute, I still type 'Fomrat' instead 'Format'. (Which one of those do you think I just had to correct?) ...and 'Proejct' instead of 'Project'. And I tend to put the first character of a word as a space and the space as the second character of a word.

That is autocorrect, ain't it?

In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.

I never make misteaks! :) My mistakes are usually off-by-one errors (e.g. ertr instead of were).
