Smart lady! I always fall back on "English is my third language" when I should probably just say "I was too drunk to see what I typed."

Sometimes spell check makes a bigger mess than me.

And if we are going to be honest, some of it is just the English language.
If you have a written language that includes such gems as " I before E except after C except some other words where it is backwards and we don't know either, maybe it is just a suggestion" Or "It is pronounced Zee until you drive 60 miles north then it is Zed and color and humor get a U added" then there is going to be some confusion.
