Important and Also and Too
 
Try this again. Different approach
Important is spelled important not impordant.
It is still ok to say also or too instead of As Well.

I was so concerned about that. Thanks for clearing it up.

To, too and two

LOL, that has to be at the far bottom of the list of egregious spelling and grammar faux pas encountered on TOTV daily.

Kids today can't read, so it doesn't really matter anyway.

I could care less….. as I typed that spell check actually corrected “could” to “ couldn’t” so spell check is smarter than a large percentage of Americans.

OLD JOKE.
"Where's it at?"'
"Don't be stupid. It's wrong to end a sentence with a preposition."
"OK then, where's it at, as---ole?"

if you spend time correcting autocorrect, you won't have much time for anything else, and if that's what you value your time doing, i am very sorry about that condition

Regardless, is it really important? I prefer substance over form.

I'll add my pet peeve. "Two in a row." Two can only be consecutive. It takes three to make a row.

That's because couldn't is correct in this use.

I could care less means that there is less that you could care, whereas I couldn't care less is the superlative, meaning there is no less than you could care.

You're welcome. :jester:
