I autocorrect friends and family, but other people will just think I'm being a dick. I'm not, I swear. I'm not perfect grammatically either. I would want someone to correct me.

Speaking

  • Saying 'don't' instead of 'doesn't'. Ex: "He don't work here anymore."
  • Double negatives. Ex: "He doesn't work here no more."
  • Saying 'seen' instead of 'have seen' or 'saw'. Ex: "I seen that movie."
  • 'Anyways'. This is not a word. Neither is 'anywheres' or 'nowheres'. Get the effing s off there.
  • 'Off of.' The 'of' is superfluous.
  • Saying 'less' instead of 'fewer'. Ex: "One less lonely girl."
  • 'Gotten' is not a word. 'Got' is already past tense.

Writing

  • your/you're
  • there/their/they're
  • to/too
  • its/it's

Not grammatical errors

  • When people spell something incorrectly when it's written down very close by. Ex: Spelling the title of a book incorrectly when you're holding the book.
  • Calling something 'ignorant' when it isn't. It's so ironically horrifying.
