WordsRU - Help to correct your spelling

"I, myself, was always recognized . . . as the "slow one" in the family. It was quite true, and I knew it and accepted it. Writing and spelling were always terribly difficult for me. My letters were without originality. I was . . . an extraordinarily bad speller and have remained so until this day."

- Agatha Christie

Correct Spelling — is it important?

There are many who would say no; spelling does not matter. Help is readily available with the spelling checker, the spell-check, the autocheck and a multitude of other spelling check options that attempt to ensure correct, in-context spelling, but none of these options is a worthwhile substitute for a knowledge of basic English usage, including spelling, that is the hallmark of any individual who wishes to be known as a writer.

WordsRU’s team of academically qualified professional editors and proofreaders say yes, spelling does matter. In many instances, unless there is a specific learning disability or a disorder such as dyslexia then bad spelling is often no more than a sloppy approach to writing that can be overcome by observing the basic rules of English usage or even a simple review of one’s written documents. For those who prefer the surety and confidence that comes from having a professional editor or proofreader do this for them, WordsRU’s editorial service offers assistance with spelling, punctuation help, grammar check and English usage generally as well as ensuring your documents are free from typographical errors.

Our online service will check your documents to ensure that common spelling errors, including the selection shown below, are avoided:

accept	vs	except	past	vs	passed
affect	vs	effect	pique	vs	peek
all right	vs	alright	rein	vs	reign
altar	vs	alter	shutter	vs	shudder
breath	vs	breathe	taut	vs	taunt
doze	vs	dose	then	vs	than
choose	vs	chose	there	vs	their
heel	vs	heal	vice	vs	vise
it's	vs	its	wander	vs	wonder
lead	vs	led	were	vs	where
lean	vs	leaned	won	vs	one
loose	vs	lose	1940's	vs	1940s

Although some spelling errors are relatively insignificant in the overall context of a document, others may appear minor but can actually change the meaning of what you are saying. “Over there” and “it was their turn” have completely different meanings. To use “peek” instead of “pique” when you intend to convey petulance or irritation could well make your serious discussion laughable.

WordsRU’s professional editors and proofreaders recognize the importance of spelling checks and spelling that is appropriate to your readers. Your documents can be edited to American, British, Canadian or Australian English. Irrespective of whether it is a business manual, scientific report, children’s story, thesis, essay or a cookbook, writers who are sensitive to their readership will use correct spelling that is suitable for your location. WordsRU’s professional online service will make doubly sure that you have not only the right word, but the right form of spelling for that word to suit your readers.
