do you bother adding apostrophe to your words when online?

[HungryForCereal]

title. for me, i usually dont bother at all. see what i did there? i didnt add an apostrophe to the word ''dont'' and i did it again.

but honestly, i just dont. its kinda of a habit from young. what about you?

I'm on my phone and it does it for me woohoo

 

[HungryForCereal]

I'm on my phone and it does it for me woohoo

my default phone keyboard doesnt even have that function unless i download another keyboard app. im only mostly on tbt with my laptop too

 

[Antonio]

I do because otherwise, I feel dirty.

 

[Snowesque]

I try to when typing online. It feels as if you are making things casual, but not too casual.

I do! I was trained to have good grammar (English teacher mother) and I use my phone to browse TBT 95% of the time. It’s just a habit really, but I sometimes do the lowercase typing when my friends do.

 

[Millysaurusrexjr]

I'm trying to, I'm also trying to capitalise things more often. Tumblr gave me a bad habit

 

[Imbri]

I do. If I don't capitalize or punctuate, it bothers me.

 

[14joe41]

I'm so lazy but I always have to make sure my grammar is on point. Honestly I never really cared much but my sister always call me out if I do something grammatically incorrect, and I guess it has stuck with me

 

[CrestFallen]

I’m on mobile so autocorrect does it all for me lol

 

[Dwayne Johnson]

if im using mobile yes

otherwise only sometimes

 

[Mairmalade]

Most times! Depends on the context (e.g.: joke posts, sarcasm - then I may not).

More laid-back in Discord or when chatting with friends, though.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

I always do, because it looks better and is easier to read. also some words are indiscernable without an apostrophe, like "we're" and "were." in the context of a sentence it's obvious what the writer was trying to say but sometimes just reading and encountering something like that makes reading more difficult.

 

[LadyDestani]

Yes, I'm a stickler for good grammar. I have to include apostrophes, capitalize, and punctuate everything properly or it really bothers me. I even do this in texts. The only exception is when I use a few acronyms like LOL.

 

[MoogleKupo]

If I'm on my phone it'll of course do it for me, I also forgot how to check my auto-correct function but it's okay ^^
I always use punctuation marks any time I'm typing, it's just how I am and I capitalize the pronouns needed whenever I use them haha! I know that's not even weird but it's just a habit to type and not even focus on the marks since they come naturally. I tried using no apostrophe's or punctuation marks when typing here on this forum or in a random text with friends and I just can't. It's not me I don't like it but I don't mind when others do it at all

 

[MapleSilver]

I don't want to create any bad habits so I always try to use correct grammar. Even on Discord which probably makes me look weird to some people.

 

[TheSillyPuppy]

Always. It hurts me to write with poor grammar (exceptions being slang like "lol"). Honestly, it would take more effort out of me to try typing with grammatical errors. XD

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t! It generally depends on who I’m talking to/the context I’m talking in, honestly. For the most part when I’m replying to forums and when I talk to most people, I’ll use them. I have a couple friends I’ll text with who I don’t bother using any grammar/we’ll use short forms of words with, though!

 

[DinosaurDumpster]

honestly, I do it 1/2 of the time.

 

[jo_electric]

I do. And I edit if I forget one. It’s a habit.
