Charles,

In the last thread you were mentioning to Gus a good way to check your spelling was to read it out loud.

I had just commented in the thread and am quoting it here…thought you and others might find it useful.

Or backwards. That is an old typesetters trick. When reading forward you get rolling and expect words as you know the sequence to phrases, common uses, etc., so the tendency is to go right past the spelling.

If you go backwards it is word by word you are forced to look at the word.
