I like this thread!

 

You are welcome = ´You´re welcome´ not ´Your welcome´.  ´Your welcome´ means the welcome that belongs to you!!  Equally for ´You´re right´, ´You´re wrong´ and any other contraction of ´You are´.  If you remember that the apostrophe is replacing the ´a´ in ´are´ you shouldn´t (!) go wrong. 

 

[it´s a relief getting that one off my chest lol ]

I think I should start one about Turkish spelling mistakes

(Although there is http://www.turkishclass.com/forumTitle_38902, it was in Turkish {#emotions_dlg.shy}

Also I am tired of those spell-checkers tuned for American English that keeps telling me there is something wrong with my spelling when I prefer -ise over -ize:

 

organise

memoise

etc

Yes! Yes!  {#emotions_dlg.flowers}  - who do these Americans think they are??  {#emotions_dlg.wtf}   And what have they got against the letter ´u´ (eg color, flavor, honor)???
