Typoretardism

1. The unintentional and incorrect spelling of a desired word, or indeed putting the WRONG word instead.

2. A funky word for typos.

3. A chronic illness that prevents the correct spelling of words. (Not to be confused with dyslexia)

(*Typoretardism usually occurs when a person tries to type in darkness, misplaces fingers on a keyboard or thinks faster than they type and write the wrong word.)

Example 1-

Typoglycemia

The inability to make a post containing no errors,

Or to make any sense at all.
Typoglycemia can become more serious if the sufferer is exposed to alcohol, marijuana, or cats.
It's totally untreatable and highly resistant to criticism.

Ninja Typo

A Ninja Typo is a punctuation or grammatical error that does not reveal itself to the author (no matter how hard the author looks for it) until it is too late (i.e. after it has been published in a way that cannot be retracted).

Example : Dang! I proofread this email 3 times and I STILL managed to leave the "l" out of "turtle". That Ninja Typo just killed my chances of getting re-elected.

typography

The study of the design of letter forms, exhibited in type/font styles.

It's jargon. Deal with it.
Typography makes shit look good.

When designing an ad you should consider the typography, when considering your audience.
