What's Yuor Typo?

waht = what (waht the #%!?) teh = the (What teh #%!?)
clietn = client (There goes my professional credibility)
ahve = have (I ahve no excuse)
adn = and (adn I still have no excuse)
liek = like (I just tell people it is the phonetic spelling)
Those just scratch the surface. Unless I preview and proofread carefully, it becomes quite apparent that I have what I refer to as dyslexic fingers. On the board, I can proofread and I’m OK, but catch me in a fast-paced conversation on instant messenger, and it is quite comical. :smiley:

I am frequently guilty of “becuase.”

ahve
becuase

I do the spacing thing too - it’s because my brain works faster than my fingers, and they have a hard time catching up.

The embarassing one - no lie, instead of “coke” I can’t seem to avoid “cock”. I once sent out a memo about fixing the cock machine in the lobby. The response I got to that one…

I chalk it up to sexual frustration and the aftermath of a women’s college.

Because my fingers are a tad, well… stubby, I tend to hit the v instead of the b for words. And forget reaching any of the number keys. But[sup]*[/sup] my worst problems appear to be of the Freudian variety. One bad day, when writing a dye color, I noticed I kept putting it down as “blues”.
*[sub]I do proofread well though.[/sub]

Don’t laugh. Whenever I am typing I almost always try to replace an “n” with the number 2. Don’t ask. I don’t know…

I instead of I’ll. As in “I call you”. and it doesn’t show up on the spell checker.

I always have to overcome the compulsion to capitalise “idea”. As in “I just had a neat Idea.”

ornage, as in Ornage County, Florida

(Funny, I can type out Chassahowitska, Allapattah, Fakahatchee, Tohopekaliga, Miccosukee, Istachatta, Olustee, Pithlachascotee, malaleuca, et al, with no problems from memory, but I have to lokk back each time I attempt the name of the county.)

email addresses always have a ! before the @

:sigh:

Add ‘lokk’ for ‘look’ to my list

Programmer typos: Typos I always make when I’m coding.

Funciton (Won’t you take me to… funciton!?)
Memebres (Members)
Ifno (That’s classified ifno)

Everyday typos: Words I can never type correctly the first time.

Awlays (Always)
Git (Must be the little southern part of me that wants to make get: git)
Tommorow (One M! Two R’s! Dmn it!!)
Techknowledgy (Okay, this one I only made once, but my ignorance is still d
mn hilarious)

Anyway… :wink:

For some reason I always type “knoe” seems my finger just won’t move to the… w Knoe what I mean??

I always want to throw a t into busy to make… yes, busty. I don’t know why. You can analyse that all you want.

I have to look up the spelling of guarantee every time I need to use it. I often have to look up exhilaration, exaggerate and a few other words.

A lot of times I’ll type “pissy,” and that’s just NOT the word I meant…

I tend to sign most of my emails with:

Thanks,

Dave
But it comes out (probably 80% of the time) as:

Thnaks,

Dave

I have the usual ones: teh, becuase, etc. But recently, whenever I start a sentance with the word “the”, I leave my pinky on the shift key just slightly too long, and it comes out “THe.” I’m getting really tired of fixing that one.

I’m trying to rememeber any typos that I commonly …

Hey, where’d that ‘e’ come from??!!

Instead of 'to the’I type ‘tot he.’ Gets through the spellchecker everytime.

Most of mine are alredy listed here:

Teh
jsut
the whole spacing thing

But another one that I don’t ever get right is self. It always comes out as slef. That just sucks. And anothr one that I jsut (shit) noticed was son’t instead of don’t. Pretty weird. Also sometimes I hold the Shift key down too long, and it turns into something like THis, and that PIsses ME OFf.

My most common typo is lvoe for love. It can be kinda embarassing when I write a lvoe note to my fiancee. I also tend to swap the letters of many two letter words. I have also been known to add extraneous letters to words. As I type the words I jsut accidentallty hit extra keys. Hmmm… It looks like I also have problems with the word just.
