This is mine, except I didn’t know how to spell it so had to wait for someone else to write it.

I am a 43 year old lawyer and I still misspell this regularly. I want to leave out the first "e".


We spell it without that e at my work. I’m a lawyer. In the US.

To be fair, without the e is a perfectly acceptable spelling, but I work internationally.


Np, and I think this may be part of the problem. In grade school, I was taught using English-Brittanica workbooks/encyclopedias so to this day, I revert to spelling words like color as "colour" or "canceled" as "cancelled"

It means you are a good speller! With strong visual memory.

My tough words are counselor and colleague. I frequently misspell them.
