Swype... what words constantly get written wrong?

As the title states, what words give you a hard time, when typing one word, it gives you another (usually one close).

Mine are

the, it writes thee
to, it writes too

I have more, but I'd like to see what everyone else has trouble with?

Sounds like you are not getting off of the final key fast enough.

That's the thing... it usually happens when I'm actually going the fastest.

On/in, of/if, had/has (and for some odd reason "haas" which I've never used).

"were" is a tough word, as is "our"/"out" - gotta be pretty accurate on those.

Is there a way to manually add word, names, etc to the dictionary like you can do with Microsoft spell check? If not, that would be a nice touch, IMHO.

Yes, you can manually add words by typing the word, highlighting it and then hitting the Swype key located to the left of the symbol key. I've added e-mail addresses and passwords to make things a bit easier.

I have a tough time getting a hang of typing "a". If I don't head down to the spacebar, but instead pick my finger up and move to the next word, it puts "andrew" in instead. Talk about a hassle!

before moving on to the next word, look at the pop-up suggestion box and select "a," next time you type "a" it should be the top selection which will enable you to move on without hitting the space bar.
