Typos

In this blog I always attempt to write well.

However the first version is always a quick and dirty effort to get the ideas down

Because I am on a phone there are many typos from the Swype keyboard.

This is so frustrating that there are times I have almost defenestrated the phone.

Then there is another phase of review to fix typos and grammos. And I usually miss something anyway.

Then content is added and replaced to improve the structure

I do none of this for emails. Like so many other people my emails are essentially pigeon English.

Some young people only know how to write in pigeon English.

In time I am guessing that pigeon English will become the norm.

That’s not so bad – I reckon English was a lot more fun back before the enlightenment when people just wrote ‘anyway they felt like’.
