    Re: Words you commonly misspell

    I misspell a lot of my words.
    In school, I had to learn the Brit spelling and I am used to using it all over my correspondence.

    I rely on the spell checker to change it, before I hit the send button. :-)

    Looks like we're talking about typos rather than actual misspellings. I regularly mistype "from" as "form".

    I also have difficulty with floccinaucinihilipilification.

    Re: Words you commonly misspell

    I also do misspell a lo of words and spell checker helps a lot, but I have recently understood that without spell checker my writing is so damn bad, so now I am correcting my mistakes by myself and it improves my writing!
