I hate it. And this is the right place to rant about it, right? I don't mind people confusing your and you're, or then for than, but when I read "seperate" my eyes cringe. It's painful.

AAAAAAAGH

WHY.

I actually didn't know the verb and adjective are spelled differently

"seperate" isn't a word in english. Separate is spelled the same way if used as a verb or adjective, sorry.

This is one of the mistakes I keep making cause it's pronounced "seperat" in my dialect.
