GBMT,
When you write "would of" and "could of", you should be writing "would
have" and "could have". These two phrases are commonly written and spoken
as the contractions "would've" and "could've", which probably explains how
people get mixed up in writing them, because the "ve" sounds like "of".

And 'alk' sounds like 'ock' if you're not Scottish.

Sometimes that construction has come in handy:
