# Mistaken Spelling Illustrations Sarah Sumeray Illustrates Twitter Typos and Linguistic Errors By Alyson Wyers | Published 2014-09-11 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twitter-typos References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/rossalynwarren/a-woman-is-illustrating-peoples-typos-on-twitter-and-its-hil) & [twitter](https://twitter.com/IllustratedTypo) One of the most irritating things about the internet is the glaring lack of concern for the rules of grammar and the sheer about of [spelling mistakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/typotab) and [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twitter-4) typos. Rather than becoming a grammar policing troll, this artist decided to take a negative and turn it into a positive by illustrating particularly funny errors and tweeting them herself. Sarah Sumeray is the artistic genius behind the Twitter account Illustrated Typos. Some of the images Sumeray creates represent obvious typing missteps. For example, 'Tolstoyry' became a black and white version of Woody from [Pixar's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-story-x-peaceminusone) Toy Story but with the head of Russian author Tolstoy. Other Twitter typos reflect more worrisome spelling problems such as the 'ifold' tower. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Illustrated Typos:** Opportunity for artists to create humorous illustrations based on spelling mistakes and Twitter typos. - **Grammar Policing:** Potential for online platforms or tools that automatically correct spelling and grammar errors in real time. - **Language Education:** Possibility for educational resources or apps that help people improve their spelling and grammar skills. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art and Illustration:** Artists and illustrators can capitalize on creating unique and humorous illustrations inspired by spelling mistakes. - **Technology:** Technology companies can develop tools or platforms that automatically correct spelling and grammar errors on the internet. - **Education:** Educational institutions or edtech companies can provide resources or apps to help people enhance their spelling and grammar abilities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cheeky Inaccurate Language Museums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/museum-of-wonky-english.md) - [Menu Proofreader Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/correctify.md) - [Interactive Typo Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loveegolov.md) - [Grammar Enhancement Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supertext.md) - [AI Writing Parody Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/badwritergpt.md) - [AI-Generated Real-World Transformations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-generated-world.md) - [Cheekily Creative Bookmarks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illustrated-bookmarks.md) - [Toddler-Focused Typography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-first-book-of-fancy-letters.md) - [Imperfect Photography Celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonnas-cam.md)
