 This library implements a full callback system for use in widget
 libraries, abstract interfaces, and general programming. It is the most
-complete library of its kind with the ablity to connect an abstract
+complete library of its kind with the ability to connect an abstract
 callback to a class method, function, or function object. It contains
 adaptor classes for connection of dissimilar callbacks and has an ease
 of use unmatched by other C++ callback libraries.
