Sure that could be a cause, but you might be jumping past some of the real reasons. Ignorance is one, laziness too, but there are others. My mother was a spelling bee state champion, both my parents were English teachers. I've learned 4 languages, forgotten 2, and am learning another. But I still can't spell for crap, can barely type (as is obvious by many of my posts). It's just not a talent that everyone has.I jump to the conclusion that someone that can't write properly is just lazy.
This I understand but apostrophes … plural.Do these sentences convey the same meaning, JP?
"The children watched as the dog ate its dinner."
"The children watched as the dog ate their dinner"
Yes I did see that, so I presume.Well, it reads "The World's Greatest Planet on Earth".
It has been "bass" since the beginnings of the age of written music, No Typo Here !! 😉

FWIW, call it what you want, everybody else does anyway, I am old school and have been taught the correct terms in my years travels and burn't projects all just because of BASS, and "Bass" is what it Is" and Where it is at !!😱

I did look back to check the context of your post, but failed to find it.
Hence I have obviously misunderstood your intention! 😳
eye is xzempt beecos i is a enginear . this is mi exquoose . very appy at beeing a bad spellerI jump to the conclusion that someone that can't write properly is just lazy.
much luv
I turned off spell checker..... it's annoying.Not mine. I am prone to typos, spelling is pretty good. Didain for some spellings thou.
dave
And I prefer to correct myself, I'm not lazy to let some app do it.
And you have given us a good example. You are talking about multiple apostrophe, not what the apostrophe owns.
It is very annoying, because i can’t stop fixing them.
dave
I'm a proofreader, amongst other things. You did get it was a joke, right?First a comma without purpose, then "let's", "apostrophes", "its" and its should be "their". Stop the time.
Probably the "-" is wrong too.
There's nothing wrong with using a comma as a soft pause in a sentence, like this one I've just used. There's also the Oxford comma (or serial comma) which comes in for a lot of either abuse or omission. The space/hyphen/space is a simpler way of typing an en-dash which is more popular in the UK and (soft pause) in is my eye (soft pause) more attractive than the US em-dash with no spaces. More of a house style thing and it's something I feel adds dramatic effect, as does this... (An ellipsis, not a bouncy [.] key).
You might like this to show that I really do care about grammar; a pedant in fact:
A woman without her man is nothing.
A woman - without her, man is nothing.
The latter would be correct if the dog was transgender. 🙄Do these sentences convey the same meaning, JP?
"The children watched as the dog ate its dinner."
"The children watched as the dog ate their dinner"
Oh look, this isn't an argument! It's just contradiction!No it's not.
