ミス

文法やスペリングに間違ったこと、それはどういいますか？ミス、過ち、間違い、誤り…　どっちを使うか迷っています。英語だったら「Typographical error」で、略語して「Typo」ですね。でも英語にも「Mistake」、「Error」を使っていいです。日本語だったら言葉には度があって、さすがに「失敗」とかは言えないですね。

When you make a mistake in grammar or spelling, what do you call that in Japanese? "Misu", "ayamachi", "machigai", "ayamari"... I'm confused as to which word I should use. In English, it's called a "typographical error", often shortened to "typo". But you can also use the words "mistake" and "error". In Japanese, words have degrees (or levels) to them, so you wouldn't use a word like "failure", right?
