Members John81 Posted December 1, 2013 Members Share Posted December 1, 2013 Jerry, my dear friend, it's spelled instance, (as in for instance). Not instants. Not sure how that spelling would ever be correct but the word instant means, now or immediate. Should we try foniks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Miss Daisy Posted December 1, 2013 Members Share Posted December 1, 2013 Spelling correctly is just a quirky habit I have. I've seen him misspell that word so many times it drove me crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, which is why I was funning with you. Years ago I saw a comedic sketch where a guy spelled several things in accordance with phonics and it was funny and has stuck with me. One word I've had trouble with over the years, especially when typing, is the word judgment. In fact, as I was typing the word that "e" just automatically went right in there between the "g" and "m" so I had to backspace it out! Ironically, as I've helped my pastor edit and reformat some of his sermons I've found he has the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Salyan Posted December 1, 2013 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2013 Well, judgement can be correct. It just depends whether you're using American or British spelling. Bonus for us Canadians - we can pick whichever one we prefer. :frog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
