Yahoo's Spell Checker . . . ?

It's an American run site, I don't use it I use my own on my tool bar it's much more accurate !! :)

Yahoo! Answers already has a spell checker. Yes, it can be annoying at times. But, hey. It's better than the other spell checker.

The Yahoo spell-checker is about as much good as an ashtray on a motorbike. There's LOADS of stuff in there that just does NOT make sense! I run a spell-check when I'm finished - then I do my own!!

Yahoo has spell check here

also my blog

email

Mine show up Canadian

and English words

Yahoo is everywhere worldwide if you notice at the bottom of

this page. Depending where you are different places different nationalities.

Because you actually HAVE the spell checker. I haven't seen that in the US Yahoo for all the years I've used it.

I guess because Yahoo is an America corporation and they just did not take into consideration other nations spell. I think they were trying to make their work easy and accomodate their BIGGEST customers which are by far AMERICANS

Hello.The only reason people need a spell-checker,whether American or English,is that English isn't taught correctly in our schools.

Or,as I'd guess it would read here....

Da only reesan peepol kneed a speel-cheeker, wevver Americin or Ingliss,is dat Ingliss ain't lernt right in our skools.

Sorry!

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.

Because it is based on the Microsoft spell checker, which has American spelling.

Since Yahoo is an American company you have tolerate a little bit of this. Let the moderator know of your concern, it may be a coding issue.
