"Of" instead of "have." When I see "could of" I want to scream. That is hands down the one that gets me most, especially because even some of my most intelligent friends do it! I don't understand.
These things:
: colon
; semicolon
, comma
' apostrophe
What is so complicated about them? Why don't people know how to use any of them correctly?
And for the love of God, it's ETC. It's an abbreviation for "et cetera" - it's not ect. Ever.
Don't leave out our friend the ellipsis.
