How 'kissing' turn to 'killing' in smart phone messages

One son got the shock of his life when he received a message from his mother that his brother was “adopted” before his mother realised her mistake and had to convince him she meant "accepted".

This is one of the many blunders that have left smart phone users red-faced when its auto-correct function goes awry, reports the Daily Mail.

This predictably ends up interfering in people’s messages, changing them to vastly different meanings.

From changing the words 'kissing' to 'killing' or 'cross country' to 'cross dressing' the receiver normally gets a bit of a shock, before a laugh.
