If the dictionary spells a word wrong how are we suppose to know?

Lol

ThanksIf the dictionary spells a word wrong how are we suppose to know?
The dictionary publisher publishes an errata, which corrects errors in the edition. You can usually find that on the web. Another option you have is to compare two dictionaries on the web, to see if the word spellings match.
It should be "how are we supposed to know". Some dictionaries may have variations in spelling especially if they are based either on British English or American English. Generally most dictionaries list both spellings. Chances are the word is not spelt incorrectly, there are words in existance that have more than one accepted spelling.If the dictionary spells a word wrong how are we suppose to know?
LOL I have know Idea I am such a bad speller that there is no hope with out a dictionary. Ha ha ha. I guess I will just have it just as wrong as the miss spelled word in the Dictionary. Love ya Jo HUGS and Prayers Sug
Depends on what the word is.



You know, we have lots of alternative words that we can use in nowadays English. And dictionaries are different from one another, too.If the dictionary spells a word wrong how are we suppose to know?
We don't, I guess.

When, and if this ever happens,

I simply suggest you panic.

Flail your arms- scratch that, ALL of your limbs in the air, and wail and squeal until you feel it is necessary to cease.
They are NEVER wrong - not in the dictionary.



Here on SPELL CHECK - yeah there's a lot of mistakes.



They need to add text in there like we all text on the cell phone, don't they!!!
LOL. We would never know. The dictionary is never wrong. LOL. = )
You wont know coz u will just assume it is correct. Interesting. Is it possible? lol
If you are unsure you could always write to Mr Webster.
I normally ask someone babe. lol
