keyboard madness - can yoo tipe?

[birdieman]

We all type a lot on here so which words on here and at work/home do you constantly have to go back and re-type or edit later. Drives you mad doesn't it?

I have a few culprits -
8 times out of 10 I spell 'the' as 'teh'.
'Attached' always becomes 'attcahed'.
'than' is normally 'thna'
'probably' is always 'probabaly'

Those are my worst offenders. What are yours?

I'm sure it's rushed typing rather than dyslexia. If it was dyslexia I wouldn't notice 2 seconds after I've typed it, right?

I am still a 4 finger typist, self taught, my chubby fingers don't fit on the keys like a proper typist and I still have to look at the keyboard probably 85% of what I type. Sad I know.

Competition is always tricky for me. It often ends up competion.

I am always typing FORST instead of FIRST but I blame my fat fingers.

 

[JustOne]

I always type fecker instead of fuc...

 

[Imurg]

Black always ends up as balck for some reason. But when I'm typing on my phone anything can happen......

Chirs.

Always.

It's my name. You would think I could type it by now. It's only been 45 years.

The way the keyboard is at times, it misses letters I've typed altogether. Chris knows about that one.

As for the iPhone, the 'i' and the 'u' are favourite swappers. But almost anything can happen with it.

But my most typical one is the second letter after a capitalised letter is often capitalised as well. But only on a keyboard. I call it left pinky lag on the shift key!!

Tend to type too fast the normally ends up at th e... with the e at the start of the next word

The biggest culprit for me is leaving the caps lock off when it should be on. Sometimes not noticing until after typing the whole sentence, annoying or what?

O'm an expellent typist.. Never had any problems with it. 199% evry time.

If you think your typing is bad, Stu, try the iPhone app called Dragon Dictation. It's free and converts speech into emails or texts. Hours of endless fun. It makes your typing look good.

Just an example

"Sergio WILL be a Captain's pick. He never misses a putt"
becomes
"Schedule will be attacked and strides in a message back"

Close but no banana.

Prizes for the worst translation.

Must be your scottish accent.

Dragon Dictation is fantastic for me.
