Calender is a real word but it’s something to do with textiles rather than showing dates.

Went through an embarrassingly large portion of my life spelling it Febuary.

Pretty sure i was right and everyone else is wrong

Queue and Cheque have always been challenging

My big one is unnecessary. I’m fine with necessary. However, inexplicably, add an ‘un’ to the start and all of a sudden I get confused about the number of n’s, c’s and s’s.

Bureaucracy.

Perhaps ironically as I’ve spent most of my working life in the public sector in one way or another.

I do KNOW how to spell ‘language’ but, embarrassingly, I often mis-type it which is a pain as I have to type it a lot.

The most common words I see misspelled these days by the young people are what I would call ‘smooshed words’ where two words get smooshed together incorrectly (yeah, yeah, settle down you crazy descriptivists):

eachother

As books on punctuation go* this isn’t bad

*I haven’t read any others

Manouvre.

I know that’s wrong, and maybe there should be another e in it maybe? I could right-click and fix it, but then you’d look and say to yourselves “I’m sure that’s spelt* right”.

*on a related note, should that have been spelt or spelled?

Always have a bit of a brainfart when I go to write an X or a Z, to be honest.

always used to struggle with wednesday and february, both are spelt wrong in my opinion.

In general I’m pretty bad, probably have the spelling ability of an 8 year old

I always think of ‘canoe’ which gets the first half of the word sorted. Then it’s just ‘oo-v-ra’
