Typo's

It's well known that 'the' can often be mistyped as 'teh'. It happens when you type quicker than you can think - hand/brain coordination. Even if you know how to spell words, are there certain words that you -always- mistype? Mine are as follows:

send (should be spelt sent)
intrustion (should be spelt intrusion)
entires (should be spelt entries)
lounder (should be spelt louder)
driver (should be spelt drive)
throught (should be spelt through)
yourtube (for some reason, 'youtube' doesn't sound right to me)
amazone (should be spelt amazon)
inces (should be spelt inches)
verity (should be spelt verify)
by (should be spelt but)
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    Kind of relevant:
    In a gaming forum, someone was asking for help on the latest Zelda because he couldn't defeat the "shadow breasts". :lol:

    Hehe, that's what I was thinking too :p


    as for my own... hmm...
    I often put "out" instead of "put". That happens with other words where I type too fast and hit the key next to it instead. I appear worse on MSN because I press enter without reading through fiirst.

    It often happens if there is a word you often type and twist it up with another.

    like Amzon + Zone = amazone
    Thought + Through = throught.

    There is one special I CONSTANTLY mistype, but can't remember now, it's probably in german anyway.

    I think you have struck Bull's Eye in respect to what I do, as Amazone and Throught are two of mine.
