I realize you are too old to use modern technology, but smartphones are pretty nortoious for auto correcting/changing words. If you don't notice it..

Ie.. aides is easily exchanged for aids. When typing on a small screen it's very easy to miss that the word was replaced..

Hell they have entire websites devoted to text messages for example where auto correct changed words to thing totally unrelated.

Edit..

Hell even this message.. I typed "ie" but it was changed to "I'd" making me go back and change it.
