Your Obsession With Spelling and Grammar is Bizzare, Strange, and Kinda Weird

Then I was privileged, because mine was funded by local authorities.

Yes, in Germany they are funded by the state as well. Anyhow, I don't think it's justifyable forcing everyone to study spelling in their free time by reading books or what have you with braille - that's just not everyone's thing. Ultimately I think it should be up to the person in question whether and what they learn or not, they just should keep in mind that this probably will affect their future work.

It is. It shouldn't be forced but children should read. Or at least, read more than doomscroll tiktok.

Without having read everything new the last 24h in detail, while I might agree. What, are you gonna do about it. K, it's sad to see schools don't teach you shit, it's a scam and all that. For my part, I know. But what do we change? I don't think the people targeted here really give a damn, to say it how it is, so if the goal is to care so much to break them out of a flawed school system yall gonna have to put in a lot more effort than this.

Yeah so I agree with Marc. Most of the people on here don't care, and your castigations don't matter. I used to do it when I was younger and the response that I'd get is, "This is a chat client or forum, not an English class".
Most of the pople y'all go after are kids, and kids don't like being corrected. Remember when you were younger.
However, this thread takes on a completely different tone from the reality elsewhere in the forum. In here, pointing out spelling mistakes is made out to be some kind of altruistic crusade, for the improvement and betterment of the blind community, but I think even the posts in here prove my point. There's a consistant undertone of, my education system was better, more rigorous, etc, etc, etc. Just look at Arctic Moon's signature, for example.
You don't point out spelling errors as a quick, "BTW, it's X, not Y". It's more like, "LOL, what is X, I've never heard of X".
Tht doesn't help with spelling, that only helps to bully and chastise someone else. You can find plenty of examples of this throughout the forum.
It's this behaviour of what I talk about, not genuine efforts to correct someone's English.

I do agree with this one. What I have to add however is that the only reasons I'd get it, sometimes people degrade the spelling of a word, or maybe even a post, so hard I do have to really think what that was trying to be originally. Idk how much I've seen this on here spasifically though. In that case I can defend people doing it, if it's serious.
Which, unfortunately though, doesn't seem to be the case with most people here. At this point if I'm unsure of a word myself, I try to avoid using it because I know that persons XYZ and abc are gonna bitch about it and then look what happens, in the next post they make worse errors.
Really, it's a loop. Doesn't get us anywhere.

It doesn't matter if you care or not. Your employer cares, so do sighted people who see your spelling with their eyes. It's not an excuse if you use Eloquence. If I spell better than you as a non-native, it's a shame. Sorry.

honestly IDC what synth is being used but even then I'd still have to figure it out bassed on how the word is spelled, such as German instead of Jerman (just because it has the j sound :d)
No but on the otherhand how will the sighted people know what you meant if you spelled a word 1 or more letters off? Especially longer words. Speaking of words being misspelled sometimes I will do this thing when there is a word like especially I tend to insert 2 s's instead of 1 xd

May I ask who you are targeting exactly?
Also, for the love of creation, stop judging eloquence users and act all superior. Sigh.

I'm not targeting Eloquence users. I'm targeting american enlish eloquence users.

It's not, as previously written it often is easier for non native speakers to be much better in spelling than native ones.

Yall there is no reason I should be inadvertently catching strays for the poor writing conventions of other eloquence users.

@27, but why do you care, though?

IDK if she just expects everyone to be perfect even if we don't have that ability or...

Lol. It's called pointing at other mistakes to berry your own.
Common tactic. Probably there's something, like a flaw she can't cope with so she focuses on others flaws instead.
Just a guessing, though. Given her obsession with this.

To be fair I have seen quite a few sighted people with similar spelling to the spelling styles in question here.

I use American English Eloquence and can catch spelling errors just fine.

yeah my spelling used to be a piece of shit. oh boy, the stuff I rote when Iwas 10/11/12, was horible. and my spelling today still isnt super super good, but its deffanitly a lot better then it was at one point.

I mean for me, I really dont care, as long as i'm not writing a paper for school, I dont care if something is spelled wrong, as long as others understand it, its ok for me

It's totally ok to be a so called grammar nazi or a spelling nazi, and there's no need to search for insecurities.
Someone might be more passionate than you are about linguistics, or actually care about your future more than you do :D That's kinda sad, actually.
