I often see people misspelling words like "lose" and "weird." I am always seeing the word, "Loose" when it's obviously "Lose."

I think it goes a long way toward explaining. Deaf folks go by the way the word looks, and hearing people try to spell using phonics. English is phonetically inconsistent. That is one of my reservations about systems like CS that rely on phonetic representation, but that's a whole other topic, LOL!
