Those who write, be it books, articles, blogs or any other thing that people can read, are used to go over their writings several times, trying to catch any typos that could be in the text, which are always not so good-looking. Yes, there are spellcheckers and all that, but there is always one more to find.
In Taiwan, it is very common to find typos in all kinds of texts written in English, even in more serious documents (and I do not want to talk about my name). On one hand, I guess it is a problem of the alphabet and of using a foreign language. On the other hand, it seems that sometimes they want to go too fast. How to explain then, not going into grammar questions, that the text on this plastic cup creates a new word?
envivonmental?. It is good for a smile, though.
Of course, I am also guilty of that :P.
