Search engines keep track of what is searched for and how the words are spelled.

Or maybe I just don't read gud.

So this is as much about typos as anything, not necessarily words that people don't know how to spell, it could be words that they often transpose letters while typing quickly.

For me that word is usually "teh".

Ok, ok ok. Who exactly is misspelling one letter words? Has it become so bad that people can't spell "a" and "I"? Oh the humanity, the humanity, smh, LOL.
