Answer 1

advertising as advertizing
exercise as either excercise or exercize.

When I was a little kid I kept having trouble with the word you. I would spell it eu, yeu, yew, iu... ah, it was painful.

Answer 2

Here is a site. It's a quiz and it lists the most common mispelled words. Don't worry, it's only 10 questions.

Words I miss the most:

1. Consciousness (I bet I didn't spell it right)
2. Grateful

There's more...but I can't think...sorry!

Answer 3

I was nearly grown before I could reliably spell the word tomorrow!! I always put two m's in it, too. And when I am writing (literally, with my trustworthy pen and paper) I have trouble to this day with the number-word eleven. I have no idea why...it just never looks correct!

Answer 4

I blame my keyboard because the way the keys are placed, I always spell TEH instead of THE

Answer 5

The "i before e, except after c" words always get me.

Answer 6

convenience
occasion
embarrassing
harassment

I had 1 out of 4 right before I hit spell check..lol

Answer 7

My hand written spelling is surely distinctive than my spelling on a working laptop or computing gadget. Handwritten, I spell "debris" as "debree" and "practice" as "proove", yet I in no way do this once typing. i'm strange. XP
