I can't spell definitely. The only reason it's spelled properly there is because of spell check. And no matter how many times I see it spelled definitely I continue to spell it definetly.

Oh I'm terrible with that word too.
Al ov dam.
I've always been good with definitely! I still think your way of spelling it is better than people who spell it "defiantly."
No no no no no no.
My problem words are separate and sequel. I always want to put seperate and sequal.
Separate is one of the words I have the most problems with. In my mind, it's spelled "seperate" but I'm aware it's spelled separate.
"Amazingly". :(
None of them because I am a fantastic speller.
Using words that don't exist though, that's a different story.
I was bad with "definitely" too until I realized it has the word "finite" in the middle. Now I just need to conquer restaurant and refrigerator. Both of which I spelled right just now, but I tell you it was tense.
"arboretum"
"Judgment" is annoying because I keep expecting there to be an e in there, like judgement.
"annihlation"
I fecking hate that word/
Annihilation. That's the correct spelling. I will kill it. I will -annihilate- it.
There is if you're British!Quote:

I'm worse with my pronunciation than with my spelling, but I would prefer if pronunciation was spelled pronounciation. I'm not a big fan of random inconsistency.
You poor thing, having to learn English :(Quote:
