I am a severe dyslexic and 10 years ago I would have never posted on a site like this. Technology has made things so much easier. Don’t get me wrong I still like to confuse and give the spell checker and google a run for its money. Some post take me ages to compile and I still get told there are grammar and spelling mistakes but I have got to the point and age where I don’t care anymore. As for people posting where their first language isn’t English is brilliant.

Homophonic errors are not seldom seen in posts, pronunciation faults rarely.
English is a constant PITA in this respect (compared to, say German).
"Ortography" comes to mind, and the "ghoti" pronunciation,so often mistakenly attributed to G.B. Shaw:

I guess reforms for less spelling irregularities has been going on as long, and has been just as successful as the Metrication?

Just couldn't resist.

For me German is a nightmare since the school, because I don't like that at this moment, and after, in my working time or in shooting activities it was only Swiss-German spoken, and even if German is learned at school, Swiss prefer dialect as current language.
