Can you trust your Spell-Checker?
I have a spelling chequer
It plainly marks for my revue
Miss stakes eye cannot sea
Each thyme when eye have struck the quays
I weight for it to say
If watt eye rote is wrong or rite
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two late
And aye can put the error rite
Know matter small or grate
I’ve run this poem through it
A’m sure your policed to no
It’s letter perfect in tis weigh
My chequer tolled me so.
Technology has its limits. Essay markers can always tell whether a human eye has checked for errors.
