+1... I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the OP, but this secret did confuse me.

I guess there have been times when I'm reading a book and I see the word prostrate, and after reading it once my eyes will flick back to it just to check that there's three 'r's, simply because I think it would be funny if that were a typo, lol.

da

Reading a book that's actually been legitimately edited, sure. In fanfic, though? This mix-up happens a LOT.

OP - I'm with you, except the incorrect usage bothers me too haha...

Anon the anon you're replying to replied to. I know the mix-up happens, I'm just wondering what needs checking when you come across it? Unless the context is very confused, isn't it obvious whether the word's wrong or right from the get-go? What the secret said:

I can't finish the sentence until I look to see if the writer has incorrectly used the word prostrate instead.

Look where? What I mean is, what are you checking the word against, if not the sentence it's in?

ayrt

I didn't post the secret, but I assume the OP just meant going back to that part of the sentence and re-reading it to see whether the correct word was used; when quickly reading I often don't notice a very similar switch like that. Kind of like that thing where you can read the scrambled words because the first/last letters are the same...
