Why is it important to spell correctly?

Answer 1

A document that contains spelling errors implies that: a) the author does not care about presentation b) the author is too lazy to edit his or her work c) the author lacks education, to some extent, and therefore the qualifications for the document to be of any real worth d) the author will not make the time and effort to present their very best quality work: therefore, potential employment of said person would be fraught with risks If a document is not edited correctly (and spell-checkers are really the lazy way out), the author is simply less likely to be taken seriously by those whom he or she seeks to impress, e.g. a teacher or an employer. Spell-checking is applicable to writing in the same way that cleaning one's house indicates one takes seriously the task of maintaining tidiness and hygiene; or how the way one dresses reflects how that person cares about how he or she looks. ======================================= A misspelled word, especially one in a 'document,' can have serious consequences. Spellchecking is only the FIRST step in reviewing a document. Spellchecking only identifies non-words. It does not identify a word that has been misspelled as another word. It does not identify many, or even most, grammatical errors. It does not identify a wrong choice of words. It does not identify whether there is a better way to say what you're trying to say. A person who relies only on spellchecking is lazy. A person who doesn't even spellcheck is a fool.
