Just curious, are there any words that you constantly misspell and have to make spellcheck fix for you?

The only word that constantly comes up misspelled for me is exaggeration.

I have no idea why, but I can't for the life of me spell that word when typing. :24:

How about you?

You must have made this thread after reading my posts. I am the worst at spelling and grammer. I keep google up when I am on the forum. So I can check my spelling fast.

No I generally mess them all up.. and it's not usually my spelling that's the problem.. it's fingers and brain don't go at the same speed.

That word you wrote is one (I don't trust myself to write it) I love spell check. I mispell a lot of words I just shrug my shoulders and if in doubt type (sic) after it and let it go. I figure as long as I can communicate what I am trying to say that's what counts.

It's not really misspelling but I constantly mix up you're and your as well as their, there, and they're. It's not that I don't know better, I just type without thinking. Then I read through my post and see that I've mixed them up again. I call myself an idiot and then go edit my post. :D

I have found auto-correct features have made me completely brain-dead regarding spelling. I cannot spell separate for the life of me. I ALWAYS spell it seperate first. Oy.

I can't say as though there's any one word... my main problem is the fact that I'm somewhat dyslexic and end up typing letters entirely different from what I'm trying to type.

There is one or two that get me - I'll post them when I remember :p

Like Zirc, something else trips me up quite often though - Its and It's. I usually use the wrong one without thinking.

I keep the autocheck thing on, but to be honest I also second guess the spelling of misspell, LOL And I totally didn't realize the new layout has spellcheck on the reply window...awesome!!! Nvm...it doesn't work. BOO!!!

Ummm, what else. I know there's one that I always have to look up and I can't think of it right now. GRR!!!

Oh...I always second-guess niece.
