#297 Spelling Errors


I saw this misspelled word sitting at the stop light waiting for the light. I looked up the spelling for absorbent just to make sure.

    Too funny, wonder if the driver realizes it? Great find!

    You're good, Katy. That one was hard to spot.

    Good catch! And I would have looked up the spelling just as you did!

    As a former proofreader, misspelled words stand up, jump up and down, and wave their arms at me! A lot of times it's done deliberately (such as the brand of truck stops there used to be around here--since I don't travel so much any more, I don't know if they're still around!--named appropriately, if incorrectly spelled: Truxtop). I have to laugh when I find an advertisement with words accidentally spelled wrong. One should always proofread one's ad BEFORE it's painted on the back of one's truck!
