Linguistics is altering my English.

Typing along earlier today to a friend on facebook, I wanted to tell him that I had never been out of the country. Which, of course, is what I thought I had typed, until I reread the sentence.

I’ve not been out of the country.

What the $%#@! Who talks like that anymore?! Is it a typo?! It can’t be! My mind thinks “never” and my fingers write “not,” and the letters aren’t even near each other!

It’s all downhill from here.

    your right it is. I have found the same problem as well. I was wondering when it actually was going to effect you. :)
