Words that trip you up

[emeraldrafael]

Surprise. I always forget the first R, because I always say suprise when i say the word in real life.

also words that dont fall the I before E except after C rule when there's a C in the word.

Other then that (that is another, typed tht), its mostly words like their and there. Even Their trips me up, cause I'll put thier (I before E except after C rule breaker).

 

[angelbe2232]

Anything with double letters, or word that I don't pronounce (like pronounce) the way that I spell them. I had real trouble with silent E's in elementary school.

 

[Valkyrie101]

Without wishing to sound (very) arrogant, I am an extremely good speller. the only word I ever really struggle with is recieve, and for some reason mainly on computers.

February. I can never spell it right (or pronounce it right) I always type Feburary.

 

[Jasper Jeffs]

Rhythm.

I always fuck it up, like just now I typed "rhythy", backspaced some and then put "rythym". Gawd dammit.

 

[sylekage]

I can never spell "Definitely" right. It's always "definately"

In real life and on here I also screw up Peripheral. It always sounds wrong when I say it and i spell it WAY differently. Periferal...Gah!

 

[badgersprite]

I still stumble over 'it's' and 'its'. Especially since sometimes Word will auto-correct to the wrong one.

 

[Rinji]

Definitely.

I always spell it definetly >.<

Same here.

Sometimes I really forget how to spell it and actually need to look it up in a dictionary...
yes, I'm not a native speaker. <.<

 

[farscythe]

prescription always ends up as perscription....n im still second guessing myself on it
and thought.. that word never looks right to me.

i'll blame it on english not being my first language... (thats my excuse and its sticking to me)

 

[Sacman]

Peculiar... I have no problem spelling it or saying it in my head... but I just can't say it... it usually comes out as Peclier or puliar...<.<

 

[El Poncho]

Definitely.

I always spell it definetly >.<

Same here.

Sometimes I really forget how to spell it and actually need to look it up in a dictionary...
yes, I'm not a native speaker. <.<

It's my first language and I still have to double check on google xD

 

[kazuki landen]

Submit - I always end up typing sumbit. I'm doing loads of application forms atm and every time I do one I tell my dad 'just submitted another one', and type it wrong every single time. Grrr! I'm had enough flipping practise!

 

[xdom125x]

Bananana(spelt it wrong on purpose). I think I can beat many of your examples with this. I (on rare occassions) misspell butcher my own name.(Dominick, and it becomes Domininick. Words that feature i(consonant)i(consonant) trip me up a lot). The funny thing is that because of the rare instances of me misspelling my name occuring, I waste time double-checking if I spelt it right, quite often. I really hope that isn't a sign of some mental disorder.

February. I can never spell it right (or pronounce it right) I always type Feburary.

I pronounce it wrong too. I say it as Feb-you-ary.(the ary still rhymes with merry when I say it which I think is the right way). Sometimes while writing it, I forget it has the first r as well.

 

[Nerd in Training]

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. I always trip up on the 'dalio' bit. In day-to-day situations, however, I mainly misspell random words in frequent bouts of idiocy.

 

[Bomberman4000]

So let's here it Escapist! What words give you the most trouble when typing?

I'm not making fun of you, but I find it odd that in a thread about spelling you wrote "here", as in "I'm over here!" rather than "hear" as in, "Can you hear me now?"

Just an oddity I noticed.

Well damn. I hate when I do that. Thanks for letting me know so I can fix it.

Right now I seriously hate myself for doing that; it's one of my biggest pet peeves.



Aaaaaand, fixed.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

The usual suspects seem to kill my WPM:

February
Simultaneously
Differentiate

 

[Outright Villainy]

Polybenzimidazole. This was an important part of my presentation today. :/

 

[Ladette]

Wednesday, I always want to spell it Wensday.

I'm also incapable of saying "inevitable" in real life. I pronounce it en-evit-abel.
