13.12.12 Missing Syllables & Letters



Tempory - The problem with the mispronunciation of this word is that it's never a temporary thing.

Particuly - It is particularly annoying to hear this non-existent 'word' used so commonly.

Reguly - I regularly hear this pathetic and lazy utterance.

Vunrable - This is so prevalent that we are all vulnerable to attack by illiterate arses.

Contempory - This is a contemporary issue, what with standard having hit an all-time low.

Deteriate - I have watched the standard of English and grammar deteriorate significantly.

Probally - It is probably fair to say that things will only get worse.

Alternate - There is no alternative approach for me; I will simply continue to highlight mistakes.

Authoritive - Even an authoritative approach has little impact on offenders, who revel in ignorance.

Secretry - The job of secretary has all but disappeared, so there is no check on correspondence.

Libry - No one bothers to use the library anymore, and the world is dumbing down.

Customry - It's customary to get this wrong, nowadays.

Spectaculy - This is spectacularly fucked up by many people.

Fith, Sikth or Twelth of Febuary - Do I really need to explain?  No.

There are very many more examples; quantative/quantitative, honoury/honourary, disoriented/disorientated, vetinry/vetinary, inventry/inventory . . . . . . .

Standards will probally deteriate spectaculy, particuly as it's now customry not to care.  It's particuly frustrating to hear Febuary reguly mispronounced and it's not a tempory problem.  There's no alternate but to admit defeat.
