Funny Spelling mistakes
|
I have just made a horrible spelling mistake...
Instead of appealing I wrote appaling :-D
Have you ever seen a spelling mistake that changes the meaning in a funny way?
appealing - appaling
feel - fool - full
peace - piece - piss
When my mum was 5, she went to a all school meeting and she was very puzzled... why the teachers talked about mosses (Moses). She never heard about classrooms with green moss on the floor :-D Hehe.
I suppose you know this story - Italian in Malta:

The Italian who went to Malta is available on youtube. The students love it.
Does anyone have any links to other video clips that show misunderstood English?
I �d really love some more for my students.
Thanks Joy |
