Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
There is a classic story, Laddle Rat Rotten Hut, which is a full page long using “Anguish Languish” (English language). It will suprise most that it can be found in the first issue of Sports Illustrated! Hope your local library has a complete collection.

Spellcheckers don’t do everything. You need to know the difference between homonyms like there and their for instance.
Anyone with an attitude like that is indeed going places: first Rikers Island then upstate for a good many years.
