Also, you're pretty good at that one. Making topics into spelling topics. Elten staff we need more, that build to survive thing, and now this one. I have to say this is impressive sadly. And I am still not willing to get headache and using Espeak. The entirety of it's pronounciation gives headaches on it's own, so idk how useful that is in the end. And I'm not some slavic person who uses hungarian and romanian and whatnot for every english thing. It's quite annoying imagining it. Anyways, what is the point of the discussion. Again, we'd probably all be disqualified if we go with your rules. But we got in so many votes and at the end we'll just see what happens, engaging in those discussions doesn't make anyone of us look better, unless we'd actually come to a point. That is, as long as you know grammar it shouldn't matter if you make a spelling error time by time. The exception is the application users submit of course.

Another concern is this one other thing that is quite fake. Using like 2 or 3 smiling smilies in 1 message. I don't see the point of this. To me, it looks like trying to change the reaction of the receiver. But that, truely doesn't look professional. It's hard to explain but I'm sure I'm not the only one agreeing here, am I.

Wow, you guys are really cringe, and I say all of you! You have time to talk about emojis in messages no fucking one is caring about. About spelling errors every one, every one, does! No matter if they are native or not or what ever. my god, next level of stupidness we see here. I mean I understand why you talk about such things, but wow, wow, some is just ridiculous.

As if stupidness was a word, XD
Everyone should use Polish ESpeak or even better if they use RHVoice, they will know how every word is spelled from A to Z. I used ESpeak my whole life and in my first years of school in England I got the best spelling results out of my whole class.

Rest in peace head. I would rather listen to british english all of the time, which I'm already not a fan of and can't stand the exageration of their pronounciation. But you are polish so it's natural, we all began english with our native language tts. But, this will be the last comment for now, from my side regarding the spelling at least. Though rh voice is actually doable, it's just kinda quiet sometimes and I can't understand it fast really. Unless you mean we need to use polish for that too.
Edit, how good was your class in english though.

Okay, maybe for someone it's ridiculous, but if it's, i think that they don't know adult real life.
EG: Send a resume full of misspelled and grammatical mistakes to the company where you want to be employed. Who will be employed?
You, blind person who did a lot of mistakes in the CV or sighted man with beautiful CV even if he know less the specifics of their work?
The administrator must present himself seriously. Some people take a very frivolous approach like aah, it's some forums there but i wanna fun being moderator, but if you already want to do something, do it sensibly and put work into it.

Just FYI, Hungary is not slavic... Sadly. :)
On the other hand, it was not me who started with all the spelling stuff this time.

Wow, you guys are really chringe, and I say all of you! You have time to talk about emojies in messages no fucking one is caring about. About spelling errors every one, every one, does!

at the end it cares nobody who spelled what word wrong. the main thing is that it's pretty understandable.
and I think everyone can use emojys how ever they want. I know sighted people who are literaly using that in every sentence.

You know, the post was unnecessery, but as they all are.
And Its really nothing more than just meh on that point, because wow. dk how often I'll say that in the next week but just wait, and start the arguments when we have the admin, cause no matter who its going to be, and one of the candidates will, anyone won't like it. The question is, are yall able to distance from this shit and chill and wait, or not? Well at least if it doesn't seems so, I am.

I think native speakres must spell everything correctly in English. Tey cannot even use some spellchecker to correct their spelling, so cringy and shameful that is. Just copy what you wrote in word and press f7, it'll even do a grammatical check for you and provide suggestions to fix your mistakes. That's all I say for now.
#52 Jonathan Archived
Well, good that I am not a native speaker... But thanks for the tipp anyways, seems useful.
#53 fatih
Yeah, I always did that, at least while I was learning Russian. And have a look at your browser's language settings and turn spellchecking on. That should help a great deal.
#54 neptune
If, you don't have word?
#55 neptune
But, good suggestion.
#56 ArcticMoon
Then you have spellchecker addons for NVDA

True.

@51 "Why do you expect everyone to have the best spelling in the world? not everyone possesses the same level of spelling proficiency as you. you don't need to bash them for it
#59 daszekmdn
Because if you wanna be seen seriously beyond the community of blind kids you have to..
