AIBU to ask which word you always spell wrong

[ConfusedWife1234]

Or do not know if you spelled it right.

For me it is ptahalates, phyrric victory to, thousandth. I hoped a spelled them right now.

I always have to pause before writing ‘friend’ by hand but I’m fine typing it.

Definitely and unfortunately! Kindly corrected by iPhone!!

"Misspelled"
I wish that was a joke.

@Slanetylor

Same for me.

There's one more word but I can't recall it at the moment, I'll know when I go to use it again.

Etc I always type ect

Philippines. I can never remember if it’s two “l” s, two “p”s or two “n”s. I have to write it quite a lot for my job. But spellcheck always tells me.

I have to write 'occasionally' a couple of times usually.

"Definitely..... the way I still it auto correct always changes it to defiantly..."

Because "defiantly is still a correctly spelled, different word, obviously.
Remember definite has the same root as finish, finite, infinity etc. - so is always spelled with "fini ", not "fina".

The 'r' in surprise evades me at times

Em, "wrong"! Also

Stationary vs stationery. Very annoying.

Brain/ Brian - my sister mentioned this one to me and it throws me which one is correct spelling for word I want to use - I have to say in my head b-rain to get brain right.

And a new one after son born on 15th - fifteenth and fifteen the 'h' after first t disappears. Not sure I've ever consciously realised that!

Don no wot ewe arr tarking abowt mi spelling iz fuking grate

To make clear fifth becomes either fifteen or fifteenth without that initial 'h'

The cAr is stationAry.
The pEn is stationEry.

Thoroughly. I always have to stop and think that it is "tho - rough - ly"

Minute never looks right

thier

Philippines, that actually got me too @JessieMcJessie, I had to check a couple of time at first, which is unusual for me. It must be a strange combination of letters.

The words that are incredibly similar between languages or the americanised (it's an s not a z people, I don't care!), with one letter changed, apartment/apartement (french), jewellery/jewelery. They all mess with me now.

I thought I should be more worldly with all the languages and cultures, instead I just added mistakes that I wouldn't have made when I was five years old, oh dear.

"Minute never looks right"

Minnit or mynewt?

@virginwhocantdrive

The rule is "i before e, except after c". Then every single word common basic you will ever want to use with is an exception to the rule:)

Aye, like "their".
It's a shit rule.

Colleague

Calender.
Dioreah.

Necessary as well for me. Sometimes I can't even get it close enough for spell check to work out what it's meant to be.

Neice. (Autocorrect just helped me!)
