    What are some words that you commonly misspell? For me the word maintenance always makes me second think myself.

    hence/hense always gets me, lucky I have spell-check on lol

    And using Sythe is annoying because I get used to Americanisms and American spellings. Favor / humor / center etc are all wrong but I find myself using them in essays and such.

    Unfortunately. I always spell it as "Unfortunatelly". Dunno why but that extra "L" just seems right to me.

    I always try 3 or 4 different times before getting it right, usually resorting to spell check

    I always do "recieve", even though I always write it correctly by hand. My fingers just don't want to type it correctly.

    I used to stumble on "guarantee" every time, always came out "garentee" or something similar, and I could never get it to look right...

    I often interchange "to" "it" "of" and "if", or I'll write them backwards like "ot", "ti", and "fo"

    Lately I've been typing "form" instead of "from". That's never been a problem before now...

    I ALWAYS mix up "now" and "not"

    My friend and I got into the habit of phonetically spelling "literally" in the way an Englishmen would say it, so I've been accidentally typing "litrally" when I don't mean to

    @OP: I typically make the mistake with misspell and mispell, haha.

    "Wednesday"....until recently, I'm 23 by the way haha

    There's another one which ALWAYS gets me...There's two different ways it can be spelled and both are correct. To boot the definitions are similar but I can't remember word....god damnit this is going to bug me.

    God I hate receive and guarantee. I always spell them wrong when typing them for some reason. Up until recently I also commonly misspelled definitely.

    Bruce Almighty helped me remember how to spell 'beautiful'.

    He would say: "B-E-A-UUUTTTIFUL".

    "B E A .. utiful"

    Beautiful.

    Till means to turn up/soften soil for gardening and farming.
    'Til is a shortened version of "until"

    Cultural diffusion. Canadian and Sythian cultural clash.

    Nope. Just like 'Bananas'.

    Thanks, Gwen Stefani.
