Grammar is one thing and making spelling blunders is totally another. One can get across to the safer side even after using bad grammar but spelling mistakes can become the reason of your MURDER. Here is a list of spelling mistakes one must avoid:
1. If you like a girl or a boy and have decided to take the liking to another level, PROPOSE the other person. DON'T PURPOSE him/her.
Imagine... you've typed one whole message with so much effort pouring all your emotions into it and then just at the end you add.... ,"so I'm purposing you." This little spelling mistake can spoil the cookie even before it gets baked.
2. If your cousin or fiance or husband is a Lieutenant in the Army , say it proudly but please don't spoil everything by jotting down Leftinant . I know the sound and the spellings don't match but we'll have to bear with this peculiar feature of English language.
3. We Punjabis are fond of food. We know about all the exotic dishes but when it comes to the spelling of those dishes , our confidence level might languish. Here are certain common food-related spelling mistakes one may make:
a) Mayonnaise - yes, it is that white creamy sauce which we all love and apply heartily in our sandwiches and burgers.
b)Lasagne- The king of baked items. The pronunciation goes like La-za-nia.
c)Omelette- The most preferred b-fast item for all the non-vegetarians out there. Now, we know how exactly this dish is spelled.
So, we vow to become spelling friendly and grammar friendly from now on. :D
