Any common words, you have MISSPELT ?

We Indians are tooooooooooo worried about our spelling and grammar. I don't think even the natives care as much as we do. By the way, I enjoyed your "cyclinder"! It was great fun. Having been an English teacher for six years, I was forced to read absolute crap, which the students called their "papers." So I am used to all sorts of misspelled words and grammatical errors. At first, I could enjoy it. Later, I used to feel sick. :) No wonder I did not last long in that profession. Cheers and happy misspelling! If I were you, I wouldn't worry so much, unless I wanted to become an English professor or a journalist or writer.

of course i have words that i misspelled,,we're just huamn who commit mistakes.in terms of misspelled words when i got one someone really noticed and corrected it and i stand corrected.from then on i learned and everytime i write something i do really review my wordings..when i was in elementary grades i joined spelling contest lol..it's fun..before i was the one committeed misspelled words but now i am the teacher who correct words.im happy of that..not saying im 100% perfect in correcting words..dictionary is the essential bestfriend in regards of words...

I do.. I always mistakes FREINDS for FRIENDS. Until now, so whenever I write this word I make a considerable more effort to focus my mind to spell it. I tihnk ucnonsious seplilng is ntaural and hrad to aviod snice our brain raeds the wrod as a wohle and not by letetrs.

Hi saivenkaat802003! I think we all have spelled words incorrectly one time or the other. Nobody is perfect as we all used to say. haha..And just like I think that maybe it was just a typographical error that has been committed. Take Care and Have a beautiful day! God Bless you my friend.

I had trouble with the i-e part in spelling, like receive or society... I think I'm better now, but I still double check what I write, and would be happy to be corrected. I don't correct people here in mylot because I know it's only normal here to misspell. But if I find a misspelt word a friend had written, I will try to correct him or her. I guess it's better that way, than being corrected by their boss, or someone they're applying for, or maybe a stranger. Sometimes I don't understand why some people don't like being corrected. We're only doing them a favor. Aren't they embarrassed to show others their misspelt words? Not that I think I'm perfect because I'm not. I just believe that if there's something wrong, then we should correct it. It's not natural to just let something wrong just go on and on.

It is very much of our humna nature to do those silly little mistakes again and again.Like i said this habit has already been fixed inside our brains when we were young and at the time if learning new words.A little less attention at that time may have led to this habit. For my commonly misspelt words,i would like to say that the words which have the letters 'ie' in succession confuse me alot, for example, recieve or receive, belief or beleif....etc...i still make mistakes in spelling these words as i used to when i was still a student.

I have misspelt quite a few words, but I quickly correct myself if when that is the case.

Yes I misspell words myself. A lot of time I type the word in wrong before I relized it and then posted it. I feel really bad when I do that and wish that I had looked at what I had written before I posted it.

maybe no one has noticed that you misspelled those words! or maybe they think you just unknowingly made a mistake. or maybe they just don't care. or maybe they don't know the right spelling that's why they are hesitant to correct you. ^__^;; i'm not gonna brag but i seldom commit misspelling. whenever i write something, i always make sure that the spelling is correct and if i'm not sure about it, i'd look for it in the dictionary. ^__^ but there's also some words that i usually erase after the first time of writing it because i would misspell it. one of it is the word "occasion". except for today, i sometimes forget that the double letter is c and not the s. ^__^;;

I know that nobody's perfect and one minimal error is misspelling words at one point in our lives. I have to admit that I'm guilty of this fault, too. And at this moment, there are only two words which I could think that I often misspelled; and these are occasion and maintenance. I used to spell occasion as ocassion because I'm confused with the stress when it's being pronounced. I even used to think that it would be better to spell it as occassion so that I wouldn't miss any double c or s there. Now, I personally find this thought funny. Then, I also used to misspell maintenance as maintainance. I'm rather perplexed with maintain (which is a verb), and maintenance (which is a noun). So I tend to combine the spelling of these two words in a single word to become the erroneous 'maintainance'. I guess there are still other words which I misspell but I can't think of them right now.

I know good spellers are in the minority, but mistakes in publications really bother me; especially in a newspaper or a magazine that has an editor. HELLOOO! Editor-person are you awake? It drives me CRAZY when I, myself, put something in print or send a post only to see, too late, that I made a spelling error or typo. Usually I just make typos, but I do have trouble remembering the spelling of certain words and seperate/separate is one of them. I also can never remember how to spell "ocassionnally" "occasionally" "occassionally" or whatever!

You kidding? I mis spell words almost everyday... Not that it's a good thing but since english is my second language, it's even worse... Most of my friends understands I misspell words for that they do themselves... I do have this one lady I work with who constantly corrects me & it's rather annoying... At my work, there's is system in a computer that we leave notations or messages for co-workers, managers & even vendors... Nobody does this except this one lady... Everytime I leave her a message, weather it be reguarding delivery set up, delivery issues, date chages, cancellations, or whatever it happens to be for, she always picks out the words I mis spell or wrong grammer & lets me know that it was wrong... After a while, I just started ignoring her..

lol I spell things wrong all the time, that is why I use mozilla, it seems to know that I can't spell and will underline all the words misspelled and I can go back and fix them. I do have a friend that I talk to all the time on aim and if I misspell he will correct it. I let him know that it is annoying and that if he can figure out was I was trying to spell then why does he need to correct it?! I don't think that a lot of people here care one way or another if you spell the word wrong and when I see words that are spelled wrong I just assume they are not in the US and that is how they spell where they are at. An example would be favorite, here in the states that is how it is spelled but I notice that people from other counties put a "u" in there somewhere.

No one has pointed it out to you, because everyone makes mistakes while they're typing. Me too, make a lot of mistakes which go unnoticed. I'm not English but though I try my best to spell the words correctly I still make a lot of mistakes. These are my most common ones: their and they're - defEnitely - which and that - "to" and "too" , and so on.. But I guess it isn't that important or something to be ashamed of (except in official lettres), because the main importance is that people are able to understand you and as long if this is the case, there shouldn't be a problem.

It is nice that you had alraedy noticed your mistakes because next time you will be more cautious about your spelling.

It is quite common for people to misspell words for most of their lives until someone points it out. I am very fussy about spelling and always make a point of telling my colleagues (usually discreetly by email or similar) if I notice they regularly spell something incorrectly. I don't have any particular words that I have a problem with but in general I notice people misspelling the following: definitely - misspelt as definately you're - misspelt as your (when the person is trying to say "you are" in short) too - misspelt as to (when you mean also) their - misspelt as there when you talk about something belonging to someone or they're - misspelt as there when you mean to say "they are" in short I guess there is one word I have to think carefully about quite often and that is occasion, I often go to spell it as ocassion but as I tend to write most of my stuff in Word for online writing, it corrects it automatically for me :)
