A void in modern internet literacy, which has been quickly replaced by the need to express often pointless and poorly-thought-out ideas as quickly as possible. This includes the shortening of a three letter word into one letter (you-u) and a two letter word into a number (to-2).

Crocodile Hunter: Rightt, what you see there just beyond those bushes. That's spelling, exceptionally rare these days.

I had to dumb it down for you.

Spelling is the arrangement of letters in a particular order to form words.

Kaylee just won the regional spelling bee!

You lack a gargantuan amount of spelling and grammar skills, my dear friend.

Spelling

Something that a great many intelligent and creative people have problems with. The lack of this skill is a cause for alarm among the English majors. Mechanical memorisation that is beat into you in grade school that causes a life long dislike for the English language

If Spelling is the essence of great writing why don't we have a great proofreaders section at the library ?

Spelling is a great subject! Some think it's terribly boring, unuseful and just plainly bad. But to most of those who are bound to be 'good' at it normally enjoy it. Spelling is just wonderful. Sitting down, doing activities, adding on your vocabulary. Ahh. But in highschool you obviously don't do that.. Which is a shame... Well life is hard. SPELLING RULES.

Person who is good at spelling and is in primary school: YES! Spelling after recess! Wicked!
Person who is not too good at spelling: Ahh dammmm. We have a useless time period of spelling.

Spelling

An poplar ancient science where one learned how to spell correctly. It was a very important part of human communication all the way up until the invention of Spell Check, after which nobody really cared.

Who cares about spelling? The computer is going to correct it anyway.
