why do people say "sponsers"...
 

...even more often than "sponsors".
If I say "spam me with sponsers" or "what's your best teen sponser" does it make me cool? :helpme

.... it's spenser, ya idiot !

god damb

your an idjut

It's probably because that's how they think it's spelled. Either that or they're one of those little AOLers that spell "your" like "yer". :1orglaugh

I guess that's kinda chain reaction...

Here is my theory: Some one mistyped it some day and few newbies tought that's kinda "lingo" and copied that...and that goes on and on.. :1orglaugh

For the same reason they call Choker "Chocker." :)

its the best sponcer their is!

Because they're idiots? Nah, that can't be it.. :1orglaugh

Their are many people who don't know there grammer, so they're!:1orglaugh

It isnt as missused as come.

It should be "she took my come in her mouth" or "Come visit me" yet people use cum or cumm.

lol

or smockey the bear!

great thread! :thumbsup

I ate people how spelled wrung

No.. it's simply that they can't spell. two ones i've seen in the past day were "vane" instead of "vain" and "nabours" instead of "neighbours". This board has the worst spelling i've ever seen.

I think thats because alot of the so called "webmasters" on here are really teenage dropouts sitting home all day....

you'll get no argument from me here.

People write "sponsers" because no one can spell any more. In my "other life," I teach English. People ask me if I teach English to non-English-speaking people. No, I teach English to people at a very large company who were born in the U.S. but still can't speak or write English properly. The rules for spelling, puctuation and grammar are so complicated. The schools have really failed, and employers have to now become schools.

Here are a few helpful hints for you:

1. a lot (not alot when talking about many)
2. definitely (one of the most frequently misspelled words)
3. its (not it's when referring to the possessive form)
4. sign up (not signup when used as a verb)

Examples:

1. A lot of people have trouble with spelling.
2. I definitely believe that English is a difficult language.
3. The shoelace came untied on its own.

itS incredAble

and rediculous. :(

I love people who majored in English. I 'm the worst at spelling, but I can add numbers like a mother fucker.


math will get you far in biz. not spelling

We live in a world of blending cultures, languages, and other inconsistent learning methods. We've got a lot more flavor and variety than we used to have, but strict spelling and grammar isn't as sacred as a lot of people would like to think.

Hell...look up these words we read all the time, and see if the definitions match the way they're used...

I am a critic of usage myself sometimes...seeing your and you're, or their, there, and they're misused all the time would drive me crazy. You have to get over it. Now on a daily basis, I deal with more different language speaking people than I can count. And I can't speak most of their language, so I have to give them credit for speaking mine. And I want their business, so as long as I can understand 1 in 5 words, I'm usually good.
