I have a problem with the first word you mentioned also. I use to be a great speller but, as years go by I find myself mispelling even simple words. :cussing:
Okay ~ I am the world worst speller ~period. I can't hear vowel sounds at all ~ they all sound the same to me so I really have trouble. Ashelyn has the same problem and it is a pain. The more I try to spell a word the more trouble I have. Poor Ashelyn...now they tell them to use 'best guess spelling' in school...we are having SO much trouble! Kids these days rely to much on computers.
:wave: I always misspell believe,beleive I do not know which is right :nono:
I was the best speller in school and won blue ribbons galore but something has happened :laughing:
My spelling is usually pretty good, but my typing and proofreading are faulty. Half the time when I type my email address I put "2" instead of "@" so I have to redo it. Any many of my words have the right letters, but not always in the right odrer.
This thread gave me hardcore grade school spelling flashbacks.
I before E except after C and when sounding like A as in neighbor or weigh.
That's been burned in my head since they brainwash---er...umm...'taught' me that in school 30 years ago and I still get it wrong. Thanks for the nightmares Mrs. Armstrong!! :cussing:
