Hi I am Duaine i am a guy from Sri Lanka People laugh at my spelling cause its so bad and i do a very reputed job so i need to definitly improve my spelling

I think best way to get good at spelling, is to practice.
I think on a computer is the best. Delete a whole sentence if you spelt a word wrong and then re-type that whole sentence, its practice. Try to learn to Touch Type. Get proper software that teaches you, I’ve use Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing, its pretty good for learning.
Also try and use the softwares spell checker if you can. If your using FireFox to view this, you can get a spell checker on it. So try and experiment with stuff, help with spelling is usually on everything.

On paper, you need to know the words, typing on a PC would help with this as you know what words are spelt how. Just remember to sound words out even though it sounds childish it works quite often, If your learning the language then get someone to check it without fear as your only learning, if your bad at spelling naturally then get someone to check it, no one has a right to laugh at your spelling, its just a weakness.

i’m afrikaans and when i talk english it’s kinde good, but wow when it comes to spelling-that’s a total different thing!!

so sorry if you read my stuff and it doesn’t make sense, i’m working on it.

this is annoying to see on my list, so i am removing it. thank god for spell check ;)

It helps

Having your writing reviewed by someone else also helps

It’s not that I’m a bad speller, or even an average speller, but I’m a perfectionist and would like to be able to spell even the words I use very rarely. I think I especially need to work on knowing whether certain things are one word or two, or hyphenated.

To start I need to get into the habit of writing down every word I find myself using, but having to look up the spelling of. If I just look it up that one time, I won’t remember the next time, so I need to build up a list of the ones I need to practice.

This is a silly goal, I just realized. With spell check, we don’t need to know how to spell. Who cares if non-native English speakers can spell better than I can? Well….okay, I do care! But, I can’t worry about this anymore. I will work at spelling in my Spanish Thing. I will spell Spanish words better than the Spanish!

B-E-T-T-E-R

awesome. Best Goal Evah.

I have always wanted to be better at spelling the written word. But I think… writing is just like life, it’s better to be an inspired author…the teller of an awesome tale, with a few misspelled words. While it would be nice to be good at spelling…I would rather be the author,I can always hire a proof reeder.
