[Grammar Lesson] Commonly misspelled words

[Shade]

Thanks to TW grammar Nazis over the years, I was able to correct the spelling of some words that I always thought I spelled correctly. I notice some people still spell some of these wrong, so here they are:

convienence --> convenience
seperate --> separate
suprise --> surprise


Feel free to add more, and thanks Nazis.

 

[slinkeh]

Rediculas --> Ridiculous

Edit: lol oops

 

[JodoFett]

I ALWAYS forget how to spell convenience for some reason.

 

[fartiusstinkius]

I often used to misspell separable as seperable but after working with so many countable dense subsets I've got the spelling right now.

I actually looked up misspell before I put in my reply a minute ago...so I feel you there.

The problem with that is that our language was not logically designed.

The exact origins vary depending on who's yelling the loudest, but there are clear germanic, french, latin, and greek influences. There has been the inclusion of words from a great many languages, including japanese and spanish. It's very much a piecemeal language.
