    For years I spelled "February" without the "r". Even though I must have seen it in print hundreds of times. I would have staked a lot of money it was "Febuary". Are there any words you have spelled incorrectly?

    Definitely

    Always spelled it definately up until 2 days ago - I got sick of seeing a red line underneath it everywhere!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,010 ✭✭✭Allinall


    Fonetic is another one.

    My spelling has gone to **** since I finished college and stopped living in Ireland. I don't do enough writing in English so my brain's gone a bit soggy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,128 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    Can never spell 'ameutur' correct ever and 'Asian' always appears as 'Brian' on my T9 predictive text pad.

    There are a few I always have to go and double check.
    I never get "cappuccino" right first go, and I usually have to think about "prosecco".

    Doesn't usually take too long to work it out in fairness.
