What happens if you miss a letter in spell check?
The good news is that, if you miss a single letter by mistake, spell check will catch it. (Unless, of course, it’s still a word without the missing letter— “public” vs. “pubic,” anyone?) But it’s also all too easy to skip a whole word, especially if the word is tiny and you’re typing really fast.
