Typing is faster than hand-writing (at least for any decent touch-typist).
I do make mistakes mostly related to muscle memory instead (the example I hit often is not top of mind, but imagine typing "best" instead of "bet" because I type "best" much more often).
Your examples definetely don't resonate with me, especially since I'd read "sean" as "Shaun" or "Shawn", and "plaid" with a very long "a". IOW, they are vocally very different.
I am not a native English speaker, but I have been a heavy user for 20+ years.
- icare_1er 4y agoThe examples I picked are not actual because I don't remember or record actual situation when it happened, but I actually started this discussion on an online board after noticing another member having made gross mistakes in their typing. Yes, I make mistakes in written english too, but they are of a different nature, for instance, I would never start writing "dee fay rent" in handwriting, but these types of typos have happened in the past when typing.
- necovek 4y ago> definetely So much for my English ;) Can I use the excuse of typing "define" more often so I typed that out before "definite(ly)" just like I said my muscle memory makes me do?
