I’ve noticed recently, that my spelling has been getting poorer. Not to a point that I rely on F7 to check my spelling, but all too frequently when I’m typing out my blogs, I come across words that I am no longer sure exactly how to spell. One recently example was “exemplify” which on this occasion I managed to sound out properly. But on my previous attempt, I mixed up the root word example with the expected sound, and when I punched it into Google for correction, it didn’t come out properly.
So this is just another old-person-rant against using (relying on?) technologies to replace the hard-earned skills of my youth. Or maybe I just need to read more and get my spelling back up.
