ciao,

thanks those who replied to my quest.

I am not sure that this is really a typo, I have found so many examples and the last one I gave is from the English book "A half world away" by Tom Bromely. By the way, I am not adveretising the book. There are many examples on the WEB, it must have been a slang.

I don't think that any mistake could easily creep in the book af

Hello Srdjan,

I couldn't find neither the book "A half world away" by Tom Bromely nor similar examples online.

I wonder sometimes: we notice typos in our own writings, only in prints! never in proofreadings. Why on earth? Puzzling...

Hello Srdjan,

Interesting. Yes, I opened that link and found lots of examples (including normal examples, 'she starts') in them. Most of them are 'Seiten auf Deutsch.'

I have no idea. (I'm not native, sorry.)

Roro,

ok, never mind...

i guess sometimes BEn can be equally confusing to natives as well.

Appriciate you look at it.

P.S: if anyone had an idea, it would be good to see your suggestions...

Dear sir,

I have examined the pages with «she's starts». Many have spelling mistakes. Many others are sub-literate.

You may find many such mistakes on the internet (and in books and magazines also). For instance, in these examples, «she strats» is used instead of «she starts»:

Hello Goldmund,
I opened some of them and understood what you meant pretty well.

Should be sloppy mistake...

Have a cheery weekend,
