Spelling errors like the ones talked about here come from the normieverse, where people hear words spoken more often than they read words

we don’t make spelling errors we make pronunciation errors for all the words we’ve read a thousand times and never spoken out loud

[proudly] personally I make both types of errors, copiously

  7. cronodas said: One reason English spelling is so messed up is that a lot of the spellings were invented back in the time of Geoffrey Chaucer when people spoke Middle English. For example, the silent E at the end of words wasn’t always silent.

    It’s not a pronunciation error, everyone else is pronouncing “Celtics” and “clique” wrong.
