Are you ready?
Right then. Here we go. Lesson 1: How to spell the word "in".
Now "in" is a deceptively simple word that many people have great difficulty spelling. Some get it confused with "inn" (which means a restaurant, bed & breakfast, etc.). Others get it confused with "inne" which means the same as "inn" only it's more old-fashioned. Some even get it confused with "out" because they're dyslexic...or just confused.
Be confused no more! Just take a letter "i" and write or type it. Now take a letter "n" and write or type it immediately after the "i", and PRESTO! You have the common and useful word "in" correctly spelled, and will be admired and respected by people everywhere.
You have now completed the first 1/3 of your 3 Day Course! It's amazingly easy, isn't it? Do you feel more confident now, (YOUR NAME)? We thought you did!
Please send a cheque or money order for $500 to Yurko Slobodovich, Box 99, Coldwater, Ontario for the remainder of your 3 part course on spelling. You will NOT be disappointed!
