Typo's and Spelling issues on Mac Computers

Sunday, January 5, 2020 7:27 PM


Has anyone else noticed how difficult it has become to type a letter or text in an email message without having Spell check on your Mac either try to correct it to another word (there to their for example) or type a completely different word than the one intended (forum becomes for ray for another example) which results in a completely incoherent sentence? Before these automatic spell checkers were implemented in computers, I could go back and proof read something and catch most of the errors and correct them. Now it is more difficult due to the constant word changing and having to go back and try to catch words that are not highlighted as errors since the computer put in what it thought is the correct word. When I just typed the word "what" a moment ago, it changed it to "that". Nuts.
