Dear Elko's website

To whom it may concern:

I read the following on Elko's website this morning. Can you find anything wrong with this sentence?

"CONSTUCTION HAS BEGONE AGAIN IN THE CITY."

In case you can't, there are three mistakes.

One, CONSTUCTION is not a word.

Two, BEGONE is obviously a phoenetic interpretation of the word begun whose author I hope is not allowed to vote.

Three, IT'S ENTIRELY IN CAPITAL LETTERS AND IT'S REALLY ANNOYING TO READ THINGS IN CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE IT'S LIKE BEING SHOUTED AT.

I hope you will pass this information along to the detectives that are investigating your local reports of a wild man flinging his shit at people and screeching like a chimp, as they may be related.
