Style Guide of Common Errors in English Grammar for Writers
our, out

our, out

When you type, the 'r' and 't' keys are next to each other. It's common to slip and hit the wrong key. 'Our' becomes 'out,' 'out' becomes 'our.' Your spell checker won't catch this. The lesson is: Never rely on a spell checker awl the thyme.
