Informal and Formal Typing

Typing has made the grammar and spelling of teenagers worsen over the years. Teenagers sacrifice grammar and spelling when they are typing to their friends, but this most often develops into a habit. When typing informally becomes a habit, it tends to affect you when you try to type formally. Essays will take you longer to type when you constantly have to correct your typing. It also makes you more prone to typos. Although typing informally is easier and still helps to get your point across, you shouldn't make it a habit. In life, you are required to type many essays. It would make it a lot easier on yourself if you could type properly. People shouldn't have to depend on spellcheck to write their essays for them. Teenagers don't take the time and put in the effort to learn grammar and spelling because they rely on technology to correct them. It would save a lot of people's grades if they made sure to pay attention to their typing. Some people think people who type informally are ignorant and uneducated. If you don't want to seem uneducated, make sure to keep your informal and formal typing separate.

  1. Awesome, I like this topic. It's true that we sacrifice our writing because we rely on informal writing. Personally, I use full quotations and spellings while I text, but that's just me. However, you make a good point. People shouldn't rely on spell check to do their writing. Spell check does not fix grammar errors, and that is where most of our errors occur. Again, good choice of topic.
