０２：４７ 有打印错误，应该是＂合作也罢 加入也罢 不过是个字眼＂。好像OP在使用拼音输入法编辑器时是打空格键了的而不是打需要的２数字键。02:47 has a typo, should have 加入 instead of 假如, apparently due to hitting space key instead of needed numeral 2 key （while using the usual IME editor）。

关于在先的评论请注意，名词"键＂和＂动词＂按＂搭配而名词＂字母、数字＂和动词＂打＂搭配就是说可以说＂按（下）空格键＂和＂打数字＇２＇＂可是＂打空格键、２数字键＂不对。Please note collocation of 键 with 按 and 字母、数字 with 打。

Since you were trying to make this full script as a discussion instead of asking specific question. I would like to point out you shall not use "打印错误" if you want to say I made a typo since you are not a printer or program that printing some output. You would say `打错了` or `写错了`.

多谢在先的评论，也许值得指出的是用＂打字错误＂也可以。typing error 打字错误

You could say, `多谢你之前的评论，值得注意的是，这里也可以用“打字错误”` But you should really say `字打错了` instead of `打字错误`. You grammar seems fine to me, but it seems a bit awkward in a couple of spot since you are trying to translate literally from English.

iciba translates most of phrase literally word by word so it might look awkward when you put these translated words together. Actually, most of the translator nowadays did not do a good job on translate phrases. What I was suggesting is the expression that most of native-Mandarin speaker would say.

拿手，
means good at， skillful.

literally means i am very familiar with doing so (just like using my hand).

不对，你还有一手。
You are better than that.

Alternative, 江东 is expecting 江南 think outside the box. 江南 didn't realize that and show confusing expression.
