Yes, it's another spelling vent. This is a snippet of an email we received from one of our highest ranking corporate officers:
"....we may of become too internally focused..."
I know this is a common writing mistake, because so many people hear "could have" or "could've" as "could of". It just saddens me to think people don't really know that the correct word is "have", not "of".
Perhaps we've become so audio-centric that no one reads anymore.
