Default Typo on formal letter writing page

(Please redirect this comment to someone who can fix a typo on the formal letter writing page.)
I hope everyone appreciates the irony of a spelling error on an formal letter writing page (see below).
"Different people put the date on different sides of the page. You can write this on the right or the laft [sic] on the line after the address you are writing to. Write the month as a word."
