Hilarious: ‘We ride our rabbit in our own kitchen’
The website Taalvoutjes collects the most appalling spelling mistakes and once a year presents an award to the very, very worst one. Winner 2020: ‘We ride our rabbit in our own kitchen!’ Hey, interesting: many language mistakes in the collection come from the hospitality industry!
Laughing at someone who makes a mistake isn’t really polite. Maybe someone is dyslexic, maybe the spelling mistake isn’t that important. And people who correct others’ language mistakes are generally unpleasant, right? But secretly, everyone has to chuckle at the language mistakes collected by the website Taalvoutjes. This week, the site compiled a top ten of the very worst spelling and language mistakes. The funniest mistake of the past year? A restaurant proudly stating: ‘We ride our rabbit in our own kitchen!’
Lots from the hospitality industry
The rest of the website is also packed with funny language mistakes. What stands out is that an above-average number of these mistakes were made in the hospitality industry or at the supermarket. How can that be? Are people who work with food a lot automatically not very good at spelling? Don’t they pay attention during Dutch lessons? Do they dislike dictation? Whoever knows the answer can speak up.
