Typos, Engrish, and Other Public Grammar Gaffes
I like typos. To me they show character, and at times they help create a level of earnestness absent from lawyerly communication. As one who abhors automated spellcheck and computerized grammar suggestions I find that spelling and other errors publicly laid out to dry are a nice reminder that human beings are imperfect, and no amount of peevish grammarian oversight can change that. I am not a grammarian, nor would I ever presume to lecture anyone possessed of less than championship spelling skills.
Some of the typos in this series have been in place for years. Others have since been removed or corrected. Content includes typos, spelling errors, Engrish, and other grammar collapses. One typo I have seen numerous times puzzles me: Dinning Room. So far I have seen it one, two, three, four, five, six, seven times!
