Misspelled

Everyone has their little quirks and odd interests. I have to confess that I am a grammar nerd. I took a grammar class in college that really opened up my eyes, and I felt like I was finally able to piece together everything I learned in my previous schooling. I'm definitely not perfect, but I love paying attention to grammar and spelling specifically. In my opinion, spelling correctly shows refinement and attention to detail. There are so many tricky words though, and I'm still finding new words that I realize I've been spelling wrong! It's like a fun little puzzle for me. So here are a list of supposedly the most commonly misspelled words (misspelling in parentheses). Have someone quiz you to see how you do!
