    While it was Tynedale's name on the bible there were a number of translators involved, just as with the later King James Version.

        I can't spell to save my life I've even forget simple words like is and it in the past, letters and words just don't come to mind , my grammar shocking as well. Hated English maybe I should of paid more attention rather than stuffing my ear phones up my sieve listening to music all lesson wishing English lesson and school away. All I can say is all hail spell checker :love30::love30::love30: , I get mad when it can't understand what I am trying to write or read my mind :gaah::heehee:

          Quite right, in my defence I went to Newcastle upon Tyne University not Newcastle upon Tyn.

            I find if I am using my phone to message or post on this forum, then it will often not use a capital letter at the start of the sentence. Also, it changes words to whatever it feels like. It is very annoying but I can't be bothered to change it anymore. Most people get the gist of it.

                Sorry if you didn't like my post for some reason @DianneW but I didn't start the thread?! Why are you quoting my post and then saying you don't like the thread?? I'm confused.
