Which English words do you have trouble spelling?

[ChrisUren]

"Because" is a tricky one for me, I always have to use the rhyme "Big Elephants Cant Always Use Small Exits" to remember it.

[wameyo]

I've always had trouble spelling the word:commission. I sometimes omit one 'm'. Sounds weird, but it just happens at times

[Qamra]

REQUISITION it is for me... This word came up as commonly used by our new system at work and it's killing me already. I got it right maybe 1 time out of hundred, Outlook spelling saves me every day. I just can't remember it.

[Mole]

Pretty much any long word that has letters like R and C. Appreciated is a great example. It's mostly because Finnish spelling is very different and the difference between spelling some letters is very big.

[leahcim132]

When I'm tired, I get confused with there and their. Sounds silly, but I sometimes make the mistake...

[jbepp]

I've got two words that I used to have a lot trouble spelling.

Embarrassing and definitely. Embarrassing since it's so long and the double rr and ss used to confuse me.

Definitely because even though it's so easy, the pronunciation sounds nothing like that.

[Kotro]

I am constantly making spelling mistakes in words with double consonants. I also find I swith "it's" with "its" more often than I should, especially in the context of text messaging or forum posting. Obviously I try to be a lot more careful with work related writing, but still, good thing there's spell checkers!

[bradman1313]

Miniature (miniture), oblique (obleak), weird (wierd).

Some words just don't look right some days. 

[mickey4533]

I often have trouble spelling the word "restaurant". Even though its such a simple word and we use it all the time, somehow I still manage to spell it wrong every other time.

[erronousRogue]

I could NEVER get "occurrence" or "address" spelled right. I always tend leave out a letter. Dunno, two consonants next to each other, and TWICE in the same word just feels wrong to me.

[sidney]

I always have trouble spelling English words that have repeating letters like "Mississippi" or "accommodating", for example. I always have to use Google to double check if I had spelled the word correctly.

[Denis Hard]

I always misspell onomatopoeia [used a spell checker there!]. It's not difficult to memorize the spelling but the fact that it's not commonly used makes it tough to remember the spelling when you need to type the word. 

[VikyB]

For some reason, of all the words I tend to get tripped up on, I go crazy when it comes to the word "business". You would think that the i would go between the u and the s, but for some reason it doesn't. And for me, it looks more like it should be pronounced like "bus-y-ness" if it is spelled like that.  :bored:

[rodserd]

My spelling has gone down the tubes considerably since I've stopped writing and type just about everything now.  With Word auto-correcting me or at least pointing out I've spelled something wrong it is far too easy to get sloppy.

Of the words I use regularly and should remember, committed is the one I misspell the most.  I always do one m.

[Dame6089]

To this day, I still have issues spelling tomorrow correctly on the first try. I always want to add two "m"'s or take one "r" away.

[GetFresh]

I too have difficulty spelling "tomorrow". I could have sworn my elementary teacher taught us all to spell it with two "m" ending up looking like this "tommorow". I usually catch myself, but I've been writing it that way for too long now that it's a habit.

[Rosa]

Now that I don't read as much as when I was younger, I find that I have to think twice before spelling some words with double letters :doubtful:.Words like really and channel.I also recall that when I was younger I would always spell through for though and though for through :confused:.I guess I need to go back to reading alot .

[pandandesign]

"Necessary", "Unnecessary", and "Embarrassing" are words I mess up all the time. The double consonants are hard to remember for each individual word. I'll always end up with a missing n, a missing r, or an extra c. I hate when I get that red underline every time I try to type those words, yet somehow I don't remember the differences between them.

Same here. I sometimes have trouble spell the word "embarrassing", which I always forget there are two 'r's instead of one. Good post.

[Thrix]

Definitely (I actually spelled it 'Definetely' right now, but my auto-correct fixed it haha) and unfortunately (wow, spelled ti correctly haha!). There might be a few more, but I can't remember them right now. I also tend to forget some letters sometime (see what I did there? ).

[zackeymane]

I always misspell liquor. Every time.

[wwalford]

I always used to mess up the word "because", but then i was taught:

Betty Eats Cakes And Uncle Sells Eggs , and as you say this you write the letters down. Super simple and no issues any more. 

[Rosa]

I wouldn't say I have trouble spelling them but there are a few words that I have had to focus on just to make sure I have spelt correctly.Words like, development and maintenance because the spelling does change as the figure of speech changes.

[Jetta]

Anesthesia is pretty hard to spell. Though if you're learning English it shouldn't be something you run into too much hehe. Unless your dream is to be an English speaking anesthesiologist. That is the dream of most children.

[heaven]

I have trouble spelling:

Guarantee.

That's all I could think of at the moment.

In general, just some of the longer words are hard to spell.

[scribe_of_the_stars]

I used to have trouble spelling the word "receive", I always spelled it "recieve", even in business emails. I was so embarrassed when I found out that I was spelling it wrong.
