Hi! I am a beginner and want to contribute to the issue. I wanted to know that the spelling fix is required for the ".md" files?

@Muskan-Malhotra There are no particular spelling errors that I know of. It's not that they aren't there. It's that I just haven't kept track of them. You'll likely find spelling errors in readme.md, tweet_nouns.py, tweet_adjectives.py, or tweet_labels.py.

Hello, I noticed an error in the README.md, I will make a pull request for that.

@VickiLanger the python linter is failing for almost all the pull requests, I think you should create another issue for the same.

I fixed spelling errors in readme.md and added nouns in tweet_nouns.py #143

@ankitminglani It is frustrating and I understand. Issue #84 is being worked

Hi I just created a pull request! May I know why it is rejected?

@evansusu don't worry about the checks. They're automatically run and right now they just aren't working properly. Your contribution was great. Thank you

I made pull request #249.

Hello! I am also a first timer and I am also looking to get started with open-source and I can surely help out with documentation. So can you tell me a bit about this and what is it that you specifically want
