I hate it. And this is the right place to rant about it, right? I don’t mind people confusing your and you’re, or then for than, but when I read “seperate” my eyes cringe. It’s painful.

AAAAAAAGH

WHY.

    I’m a writer and always did exceptionally well in English; I also sometimes can’t remember how to spell separate. Imagine how difficult it is for someone who doesnt know English as their primary language. Or an average American.

      Thanks for pointing that out. I wrote “say” in the same sense one would say writing can convey what one says. But my problem is specifically with writing. So I’ve amended the post title.
