Yes. That's kinda my point. And in the context of human kind. We refer to it as "my kind of people" in writing.

It shows that people don't read books anymore.

used in writing to represent an informal way of saying "kind of"

Both ways are acceptable in writing depending on context. If you read books as much as you claim you'd realize there isn't a universal set of rules all authors need to follow.

Please... Read the examples they give you in your link. It's very obvious which "kind of" they refer to.

The sequence of words are the same but the meaning is not.

When you say "my kind of people" you are talking about your kin.

Look, you are free to write however you want. I really don't care. I just find it sad that people don't know how or which words to use.

I was kinda sorry to see him go.

Sorry was very kind to see him go, indeed!

Yes! I find it very sweet that you've seen through your errors and openly admit it! :^)

Yikes... if that's what you gathered from my comment. I feel sorry that your educational system failed you.
