More often than not we have doubts when writing. Letters like H, B, or V pose serious problems when writing.
However, solutions and technical supports exist that can help us get over the bumps.
The most common and perhaps most complex is reading frequently. Regardless if we like it or not, it’s not always easy to find time to complete those 12 annual books that a non-student, cultured person should read in a year. However, using this method and thanks to photographic memory we can considerably reduce the amount of doubt.
Another option is relying on orthographical correctors. The mythical F7 from Word will help us with thousands of small errors that most of the time get ignored. Accents are a clear example of mistakes a corrector will help solve.
But what happens when we write outside a word processing program? What happens when we update our status in social media? In this case the danger is greater, due to the fact that whatever we post will be seen by our friends and co-workers.
For those cases small apps exist and can be installed in our browsers (Firefox and Chrome) that will underline suspicious words with a red line. With a simple right click, other grammatical options will appear, in some cases offering better alternatives that will help us not make fools of ourselves in social media.
