Some Funny Autocorrect Mistakes

Nowadays, people use autocorrect and other apps to correct the wrong spellings, but sometimes these kinds of apps do not work in the way we want. They often make spelling mistakes and create an embarrassing situation for the person reading the message.

Earlier, spell checking software were used only with word processing programs. Time has changed, now every software has a spell check built-in including the messaging app, desktop operating systems, and web browsers.

What do you think- with the use of spell check, would the errors decrease? Obviously, yes. But sometimes these tools and software make spelling mistakes and create uncomfortable situations for reader and sender.

Here are a few autocorrect mistakes that changed the meaning of the conversation.

The smartphones autocorrect can drive you crazy with its new meaning. Do you know that autocorrect works differently on different phones? The DyAc explains- 

“Autocorrect behaves differently on everyone’s phone, and it “learns” words based on things you have typed in the past. If you can’t reproduce it on your phone after numerous tries, it doesn’t mean it is fake. It just means you have too much time on your hands.”

I didn't know that.
