find mistakes
 
Their are three erors in this sentence. Can you find all three of them?

Tom52 07-08-2025 12:59 PM

Just my guesses
1. Should be there instead on their
2. Errors is misspelled
3. There are only two errors not three

Next question:
Did you figure it out by yourself?
Had you seen a similar question before?
Did you search the web like I did?

There are 4 errors.

If they didn't figure it out on their own and had to use the web, they already lost the game.

There are not three errors.

There are two errors and an untrue statement.

An "error" is defined as a "mistake".

An untrue statement isn't a "mistake", but a willful deception.

An untrue statement isn't a "mistake", but a willful deception.

How can you be certain it was a willful deception and no an honest mistake? Asking for a fiend. 🙂🙃🫠😉

Because such things are plastered all over the Internet. It's called engagement farming.

Yes, took about 1 minute
Never, it's just common logic, no big deal
No I did not search the web, I wouldn't know what to look for.

Yes, I can find all three of them.

That was the question, right? :)

And, yes, I know the third error is unrelated to grammar or spelling. It is related to the truth of the statement. Clever!

La lamy 07-09-2025 05:34 AM

Yes.

i c 2 :)

However, the sentence itself presents a clever paradox! If you correct the two obvious spelling errors ("their" to "there" and "erors" to "errors"), and the sentence claims there are three errors, then the claim of three errors is itself an error, making a total of three errors. This makes it a fun linguistic puzzle!

I agree, there are only two errors in the sentence. It should read :

There are three errors in this sentence. Can you find all three of them?

Thanks; these are fun. If y'all like these you will like The 1% Club game show on tv. It's on one of the three main network channels around 9 pm one of the weekday nights. Fun brain teasers.
