I spelled the word "answer" as "awnser" for the first 14 years of my life, but nobody ever corrected me. I only realized it was wrong once I started using computers and spell check. So, I think we as society should be thankful when people laugh at our spelling, because it means we have suffered shame and will be sure to never make that same mistake again.
What words do you spell horribly?
judgement.
alle ofe themi.
(SPOILER)There is no end to my wit
Hillarious and definately are wrong spellings that I used to be addicted to. ADDICTED! It was definitely hilarious :D
Excellant. >.<
I was flabbergasted earlier this year when I started English IV and I realised that I've been incorrect in using "atleast" all these years. I've always been a good English student, but every now and then I forget to write them as two words.
At least. A-hah, I've got it.
pretty much all words :cry:
exellent :confused:
definatly :confused:
roobarb :confused:
supercalifragilisticexpiallydosush :confused: ;)
I used to say "Humerous" instead of "Humorous". Eg - "I find your joke to be humerous".
Thanks to Nait, I don't do that any more.
Neccessary. And I don't think I even spelled it right there. I hate words with 2 or 3 double con...non-vowels.
Accommodate
Straitlaced
Ugh.
:D
Def..Defin..Definatly?
Defiantly.

Not nearly as bad as the mass ignorance surrounding the word definitely, but a lot of people have no clue about this one, too. It's "no one." Two words, no hyphen.Quote:

I probably spell plenty of words wrong and don't even know it. Recently I've been having trouble spelling even easy words. I'm losing it.
I just plain old can't spell. I need one of those microphones so that I can just talk and the computer will type the words for me. That way I can always say what I want because far too often I don't use adjectives that I would use in real life due to my horrible spelling abilities...and those are the ones I know are spelled wrong to a great extent.
i always spell the: teh. idk why but whenever i type it just comes out like that. teh e always goes before the h for some reason
I only recently discovered that "defense" and "offense" don't have C's in them.
I always spelled available as availible until Spuuky corrected me.
Words I will never be able to spell properly:
Refridgerator
Resturant
Definately (Several people, especially Kishi and Rainecloud, correct me in-thread or via PM on this one and I still never ever spell it right)
Necessary and accomodate. I'm not sure if I spelled them right. Sometimes, I can't even spell tomorrow. :eek:
Definately. WHY did I always do that?! :mad2: Definitely. Definitely.
I hereby declare that 'definitely' is an EBIL word. :mad:
calender...calander....calendar.. I think. >_<
bananana...
probally, i always used to spell it like that... now i spell it right. probably.
My biggest problem is I tend to be in a rush and use the wrong forms of there/too/etc
Oh and also colisseum! Like Olympus Colisesusmsmmm in Kingdom Hearts. Oh man it's jsut too hard ;_;
Is "just" hard for you too, XanXan? :pQuote:

It's relevant, apparently. I'll probably forget that by tomorrow morning, though.
Czan, dictionary.com is your friend. :)
Dissociation (Disassociation) (i lose marks in chemistry for that :( )
I'm surprised none of you have come up with "alot" yet, because a lot of the people on this forum writes it that way. :p
Oh, and I had problems with definitely until Psy taught me. :cool: I also pronounced "know" with a K until I was 10 years old, but English is my second language, and I hardly spoke English until I was 10, which is when we started having English as a subject.
I used to type "alot" a lot. Stupid lazy grammer.
I had a long streak of misspelling "Definitely" when I was a newb here, but then I saw Ryukawaii make an annoucement about it and it cleared everything up.
"Grammer" always was a hang up for me as well.
