Correct Grammer And Spelling

COPY WRITING

After Mark Andrews pointed out to a poster an incorrect spelling, I thought it was time to address the issue.

Simple really...go to Spellchecker - Online Spell Check Form.

There you paste in your text and it will check for spelling using the language you want.

English comes in USA, U.K, and Australian, plus other languages too.

Once spelling is correct, you can click on tab for Grammer.

This comes up with a suggested alternative, which you can either ignore or replace.

Great resource to double check your writing...especially if your first language isn't English.

All the best,
Ewen

  Yeah...it caught my attention too and I was looking forward to being the one to point it out to the OP. But your fingers must type much faster than mine do! Must be the copywriting you do daily.

Although you make a great point about using a spell check to correct your spelling errors, even if there is a grammar tab, more often than not you're not getting the proper structure/correction. It helps to have someone personally read over your work for grammatical errors!

We don't need no stinkin' grammar (er) rules. I have an autocratic post creator write all my asserts four myself. I select a subject from a preordained list, type in a few key words and wallah! A completely, coherently focused respond is fabricated before my organ of vision.

P.S. The thesaurus and spell checker features/prominent aspects is an awesome things!

On a more cyrius note, Ewen may have thinking about the impending marriage of Kelsey and Tori. Thus, the misapplication of English letters to the word Grammer. A common foozle in these celebrity media dominated times in which we live in.

  Is it loosing or losing? Well, I used to use that word previously, someone telling me it's losing not loosing. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  The mistakes I have seen for online sales letters (and offline ads) are amazing to
  me. More so because it can be spell checked and fixed on the fly.
  
  I guess when they say "make money by doing as little as possible" they aint kidding

  Just to add on. If the only "mistake" you pointed out was "loosing"...then try proofreading the sentence again.
  
  It's sad how creative methods of making a point can get so lost...in a copywriting forum! :rolleyes:
  
  Thanks

It's losing. Loosing is not a word according to the almighty Google:
define:loosing - Google Search

Actually, I believe that loosing is actually a word. As in "I am loosing (letting loose) my wrath upon the world."

Just use word. (grammar and spell checker is built in). You can find passive voice checkers online though. I think these are handy tools especially because I tend to slip into passive voice sometimes.
