Out of my deph

[cathy21]

Does anyone on here speak Northern language or doesn't know how to spell like me. I'm feeling a bit thick right now and stupid and actually feeling intellectual downed.

I think I need to disapear into a corner with my fibro and be quite.

Spellings not that important if you have something to say, most times I can work out what someone is trying to say so crack on

Don't worry about spelling as I said in a post the other day I used to be a Queen of the Spelling Bee and now have to ask the OH how to spell, or my usual phrase why does this word look funny. I have just had to ask him how to spell Tardis to reply to Badger's post as even though one part of my brain said it was correct it looked too strange to be correct.

Just put your thoughts down as exactly as Snappy says it is always the sentiment behind it not whether the spelling or punctuation is correct. If we wanted that we would go on a site for a PHD in English language.x

I agree, never worry about spelling or anything like that on here. xx

[clare_hart]

Ditto. If it weren't for the internet or my partner here, I'd spell half my 4 or more syllable (how'd I get that one right?) words wrong!

[cathy21 in reply to clare_hart]

Thanks

As everyone else says please don't worry about spelling. Fibro fog can turn all of us into bad spellers. No-one will judge you here.

[cathy21 in reply to CarolineC57]

Thank-you x

[Keeleybee]

I blame my phone

Dont no what I'd without spell check lassy

[cathy21 in reply to Keeleybee]

Understand nowt like a northerner xx

[RobertaWorthing in reply to Keeleybee]

I don't use spell check because I think it only corrects words that are spelt incorrectly, it does not seem to care whether the word is corrects makes any sense in the sentence.

What I do not understand on this site is all the abbreviations used like PIP, (can't think of any more at the moment but there are loads), but it drives me crazy, and I often wonder if these ABC's, DEF's, GHI's, etc are relating to English things or American, and I feel stupid because everyone seems to know what they mean except me!

[MariLiz in reply to RobertaWorthing]

Hi Roberta, your comment about spell checking seemed very appropriate today, my hubby was writing a note to some friends to let them know we will be away in Spain. He put " We will be in Galicia, where my son's finance comes from" it should have said fiancée. Made us laugh a lot anyway. MariLiz

Hey I speak back to front , I am Welsh. And my naner raised me ,she could not speak a word of English as a child so when she learnt English it sometimes came out back to front , what makes me giggle is that both my daughters got A at A level English and me as a mother ,😀 one has been teaching English in Japan as part of her degree for the last year and I am dyslexic and have no grammar skills what so ever, and on top of the fibro ,I am amazed people on here ever understand what I am rambling on about,

Good fun though

Shadow.

[Regnofibro1 in reply to Shadows-walker]

Me too deslixia anyway

[cathy21]

Is that giving me a free pass for rambling, like it ta xx

[Shadows-walker in reply to cathy21]

Ramblings all part of the fibro ,I think 😀 my children think it's a hoot mothers rambling again ,she ramble up in the hills with her dogs and kites ,can't do that now ,so she's rambling on at us ,and constantly repeating herself .good fun though .

Going to have all 3 of my children under one roof in 4 weeks time it's going to be hell on earth all of them teasing me about my ramblings .

[cathy21 in reply to Shadows-walker]

I'm so glad someone else repeats there self, it annoys the hell out of my son and he is 35. I know I'm doing it after the third time of saying it and damn if I don't do it again, what with that stuttering and sometimes open my mouth but the words get stuck and I just make this stupid noise. Hey bet fibris would make a great comedy act on stage, bet we must look so funny.

What a laugh.

Well you right cheered me up tonight, going to shut my eyes with a smile even though I don't sleep.

Thanks very much Chris

Ann nite nite x

😘

Just going to see if there are any shooting stars

Deslixia here! You are lucky I have spell check because without it well you would need a translator!!!! Spelling is still to hard so a lot of the time I have to think of a different word that means sorta the same thing. That is why I ask sometimes if my meaning is understood! So spell on I can usually catch on

[cathy21]

Like the word sorta, makes me feel at home ta x

[Hidden]

Does not matter northerner southerner , West Country who cares We are one big Fibro family And spelling don't matter Be happy honey x

[cathy21 in reply to Hidden]

Thanks a lot x

[Hidden in reply to cathy21]

You seem ok Cathy 21 keep in touch x

[RobertaWorthing]

It doesn't matter how you speak or write, so long as people can make out what you are trying to say. Most of my language these days is pure 'goboldy-gook' as my brain refuses to remember the words I used to know. Everything is a 'wotsit' or a 'thinga-me-gig' , and often I forget half way through what I am trying to talk about anyway.

[Hidden]

hi their my friend how far north will you accept i'm am bigalan and if i can help then i'm here if need take care look forward to your reply.

[cathy21]

Hi bigalan

Far or near, if you born a northerner speak like a blackpudxing good eñough for thestage show be howling. Could call ourselves the comic fibro ramblers game for a laugh even at ourselves

Well come aboard our sledge xx

[TheAuthor]

Please do not feel that way as you are a valued and respected member of the community. I want to genuinely and sincerely wish you all the best of luck.

All my hopes and dreams for you

I speak a lot of gobbleday gook when it comes out of my mouth as my family will tell you in not so polite terms!! have to use spell check when i write but thats just me. Not judgemental of others in the least...

I also must remember to put my glasses on while i text to as when telling a friend about a race night convenor i had manage to source i texted her and said 'ive just gone ahead and bonked him'. I was mortified however it gave them all a good laugh so that was a bonus! Haha!

PS im Scottish so probably further up the hill than you 😳

[budgiefriend]

Don't worry, We are able to get the gist of anything you say, and we all understand that some have more difficulty being understood or expressing what they want to tell us. We will ask if we don't understand and then you can tell us what we missed.

It's sharing the feelings and support that count most. Don't worry about spelling or anything else. Just go ahead and express yourself in your own way.

[kathlaidlaw]

hay don't do that we are all the same and we can get around it by saying fibro fog . And we all now what you mean when you right things down because are brain is working the same way your is so don't worry about it please don't stop reading and putting things down . lift your head and say I have mad cow diseases and I am proud and you will find people will smile and you will feel better about it we know what you are saying and that is all that maters stay strong stay determine ant tell every one who snigers I have a reason what is yours because the only people who will laugh are people with small minds and even smaller hearts so soft hugs and an even bigger hug for being you and just you , you are strong, you are beautiful , and you are here with us and you are going to stay with us and we are going to send you all the support and love you can deal with and all you will need to stay strong bigggggg soft hugs
