How do you tell a spelling mistake from a grammar mistake?

How do you tell a spelling mistake from a grammar mistake? For example:

  1. Your the best.
  2. This iz the end.
  3. I likes music.
  4. She preatend to be asleep.

My guess is that 1 and 2 have spelling mistakes, and 3 and 4 have grammar mistakes. My method is to listen to pronunciation: if the sentence sounds correct then it has a spelling mistake, otherwise it has a grammar mistake. Is this method always valid?
