Common english spelling and grammer mistakes.

By mmyke

Hello:
I keep seeing several common english language spelling and grammer mistakes, both on this website, and in Qatar generally.
For instance, there are no such words as "equipments" and "furnitures". "3 nos." really means "3 new old stock".
If anyone wants to ask a spelling or grammer question, ar ask about any of the rules, please feel free to contact me on here.
Regards,
Michael

(I can't resist) Your use of "its" is incorrect. It is a contraction of "it is" and should be written "it's."

"ther ya go fer bein in a hurry!"

i beg your pardon, what language is that suppose to be?

I only undersatnd "in hurry".. so why don't you assume, that ALL are "in hurry" while typing and misspelling?

First question:

how come you type grammer, when it should be GRAMMAR, Mr. Spelling Teacher?

...get life, dude.. there are thousands of people from all over the world here, for whom English is second, sometimes Third or even Fourth language.. Even native English speakers make tons of mistakes and misspellings...

so relax and take it as it is!

Good point but maybe you should check your own spelling first- it's GRAMMAR not GRAMMER.

Mmyke, it is a great idea.

Being an Indian and also not a native English speaker, I do find occasions where I felt I could have used a better usage.

recently one of the post I read "when we talked to contact him, the Principal replied.......... "

"the" ...... where we should use ? where we should not?

( Also please find the common mistake I have done in my

above 3-4 sentences !!!!! ..LOL )
