So I'm in college and still my spelling sucks, I always have to google it if I don't know how to spell stuff. My most fequinte misspelled words are:
amature:amateurs
calnder:calendar
comitte:committee
conchinous:conscious
daqurie:daiquiri
vacum:vacuum
all the there,thairs,theyr'es
twelveth:twelfth
restraunt:restaurant
its and it's
forgin:foreign
i've noticed i mispelled frequine : frequent
Thats all that comes to mind now, What are your most ferquine mispelled words?
:)
 
Yes! This does suck. I should have payed attition to spelling in grade school. It sucks to have to skip a word because you don't know how to spell it, and it sucks worse when the word is short like eskalator: escalator. Yay for google, and Wiki Mobile lol. :D
I just wanted to add I can't spell Mathmatical either, it's Mathematical. :)

"thairs" =D
anything related to the word 'nausea'
apparently always get me
I can't think of any other common ones; I'm a pretty good speller %).
 
Damn, ya'l must've had perferct 3600's on ya ACT's. As for me i'm G.E.D. certifyed :)
 
I almost always fuck up the "I before E except after C" rule..recieve and perceive give me trouble because I'm not always conscious of it while writing a paper.
 
I'm a pretty damn good speller. Tricky words I can sound out in my head. I make an aural association and use that as a guide.

For example, when spelling "calendar" I'll actually say in my head, "cal-en-daaarrr" like a pirate :)

The 'i' before 'e' thing stumps me sometimes, but that's why Firefox has a spell checker.

I wish math came as easily to me as spelling and grammar.
 
I've noticed any word with "iti" in it gives me a hard time. and epically the i before e except after c rule.
 
I'm pretty good at spelling, except for words with repeated double consonants. I never know which ones are double and which ones aren't. E.g:

tommorow, tommorrow, tomorrow
neccesary, neccessary, necessary
