Wishing for a World of Typos

A typographical error or typo is a mistake made during, originally, the manual type-setting (typography) of printed material, or more recently, the typing process. The term includes errors due to mechanical failure or slips of the hand or finger, but excludes errors of ignorance.

Too often, however, ignorance plays a huge part, turning what might have been euphemized as a slip of the finger into a glaring stylistic, orthographical, or grammatical error. We are all guilty of such faux pas (and aren't getting paid enough to take the time to publish our own corrigenda), but at least we can try to cut down on the really obvious flaws that make us look bad. Here are some that really bother me, with the incorrect usage listed first:

"suppose to do something" rather than "supposed to do something"

"heighth and width" rather than "height and width"

"supposably" rather than "supposedly"

"Valentimes Day" rather than...if you don't know this one, you are an idiot.

"alot" rather than "a lot"

"carmel" rather than "caramel"

"irregardless" rather than "regardless"

"flustrated" rather than "frustrated"

Please add more!!!
