Probably best not to correct someone's typing errors with one of your own.

I thought that sentence was ok.

"I bet that I've seen you repeat this same mistake for at least 5 times."

I'm guessing you've been studying American English, Jettyke. I didn't actually realize you were from Estonia. Lol, just checked Wikipedia, English isn't even listed as a language - hehe, and I thought you were American! (Nice English skills!)

@Cranks

We study British English in schools (12th year of class influence, approx. 4x45 minutes per week), but as it has already been said, classes are not very good.

So it wouldn't be out of question that I might have an American tone to my English. I've been corrected a small number of times in class, being given the reason that it's American English.

It's a small proof of that input/immersion can easily compete with classroom education!
