What word can you NEVER spell? Even if you're good at spelling

[Geebray]

I am good at spelling. Can do really long words. But two words I can never spell, no matter how hard I try:

Brocolli and cappucino

Mattress
Occasionally

looking at all the replies and realising there’s loads of words I struggle to spell 🫣
Diarrhoea and chihuahua were the ones that came to mind.

Thank you ILoveSalmonSpread!

Occasionally gets me every time, but then I can never remember which word it is that I can’t spell (because I only ever need to write it occasionally). I had to read through the entire thread because I knew eventually someone would struggle with the same word and it would jog my memory.

Weird, always want to spell it wierd...although now that looks weird!! Lol

My children's school once sent home a newsletter with three different spellings of the word calendar on the same page - calendar, calander and calender.

I was seriously tempted to circle them all with a red pen and send them back to the school principal. I'm not a total bitch though, so I restrained myself.

For necessary, try remembering one coffee, two sugars

Makes it easier to remember the c's and s's

Because
Guarantee
Receive

Separate!

Necessary
Business- autocorrect struggles to know what I'm on about with this one

Eczema
Psychopath (can't believe no one said this one. I can never remember and I always make such a fudge of it even autocorrect doesn't know what I'm trying to say!)

Lieu for me too!

At school we were taught 'One collar and two sleeves' to remember necessary.

Lose/loose

Arrabiatta? Arrabbiata? Arrabbiatta?

How many r’s and b’s and t’s?

I’m actually quite the spelling ninja but double letters are the one thing that catches me out.

Diarrhoea
Viscous
Conscious

I know how to spell it, my fingers just can't type the letters in the right order. Always takes at least two attempts.

Definitely! I just van’s spell it! ! It used to be necessary until I learned never eat cheese, eat salad sandwiches and remain young! 😂

Psychology and spaghetti.

I always want to put an 'x' into eczema, I have to think really hard when I write it.

I'm fairly smug that I can spell fuchsia even though it's pronounced few-sha, the turning point was learning that it was named after a man with the surname Fuchs, it became really easy after that.

Those people struggling with autocorrect - try using voice to type instead. It's got me out of a few sticky situations where I get more confused the more I try to spell something.

Like bureaucracy! Another one with too many vowels!

Anaesthetist and anaesthetic

For some reason I always spell biscuit as buscuit. I even spell it out loud this way (when trying to avoid saying the word and alerting DD to my snack plans), so it’s not a two keys close together on the keyboard problem. I have no idea why I do this. We just now call them buscuits in our house.
Another is recipe.

This one for me too

For this (I was a teacher and embarrassingly had it pointed out to me by a parent!)

StationEry- Envelope

StationAry - At a stop

Not RTHT but good accommodation always has two cots and two mattresses.
I can't spell occasionally/ocassionally
