Find the Error 14
(Extract adapted from a pop-up ad on the website of an
internationally-famous internet service provider)
What kind of mistake do you see? (Choose one:)
- apostrophes
- articles
- doesn't make sense
- punctuation
- singular / plural
- spelling
Answer: spelling
This example comes from an online pop-up advertisement on a website which
was designed and created by someone working for one of the biggest
multinational corporations on earth – which should give hope to the rest of us,
who also sometimes make unnecessary spelling errors like this one. 'Click to
find our more' should, of course, read: 'Click to find out more'.
