Are there certain words that you always type wrongly?

Even though you know you always type this word wrong, you still type it out first and correct it later?
I do have this problem, not the spelling problem but the "typing" problem, I have found I always type "because" into "becaus esomething something" - I put the "e" with the following word together; I always type "like" into "liek or lieek", these two are the common one I always type wrongly and check it back later.
Do you have problems typing some certain words?

yes there are so many words i do type wrongly and i wonder how such things happen, most times little words such as and, but and several long words such as intellectuality, brain storming and many more, i dont delibrately do this but it happen because i type some letters faster than others

I sometimes make wrong spelling when I think and type fast at the same time.

yup, i always made more mistake by typing, for example, i often wrote "order" to "ordr","nor" wrote to "no",so when i write one topic, often need to check it again. good luck and have a nice day!

Yep but is related to my work - I have to type 'contacts' on each account when I talk to a customer, because we have a 'call time' to hit we use abbreviations such as pymt for payment and just on this discussion acct for account. Then I get home and type discussions, articles or stories and yep using those abbreviations :( Now if everyone on myLot knew what I was abbreviating I'd be fine :)

Yup, usually these two words - continous (or continuous) and protoganist (or protagonist). Without the spell check, I would often spend time figuring which is the correct spelling.

It's common specially if you master already the keys in your keyboard. Your mind spelled correctly but your fingers rumbled it down in your keyboards. It happens to me always, I only notice it upon after submitting it.
It should have been check or edit first before submitting it but since I think I am sure already of what I typing I automatically submit it right away..and the result "rumbled words"..
