Why would can’t you divide 37 by 402? Maybe learn something higher than eighth grade math before you try and prove a point.

my boss was writing an email
subject Sanford Biggers
Sanford is a well known African American artist who deals with racial topics and more.
Intended word “Biggers”

I think you can guess what his Mac suggested.
wow. why that word is even in the spell check dictionary I’ll never know.

Nothing like it…ever. Just sound out your word then look it up in the book. You will find the word you really need in 20 seconds or less without having to turn on the computer or go on the internet!! I love this book.
