Spelling mistakes you keep seeing!

[efAston]

One I used to keep getting wrong, was spelling metre "meter". The latter's fine in the US, but not in the rest of the world. The problem was that I keep getting thrown off by words like "chamber" and "diameter", which also come from an -re French suffix, but just don't follow the trend for some reason.

Misspelled. Silly people, it's mispelled. They can't even get that word right, which is kind of funny.

Sure about that? most places I checked had it spelled as "misspelled"(even spelling programs said mispelled was wrong).

Not sure if serious, but no, its misspelled with two S's.

otherwise you have mispelled which typing into the comment box gets me the red squiggles of failure and phonetically sounds like Me spelled, which i guess is right if you're going for a stereotyped mexican voice.

EDIT:

Plus <url=http://www.yourdictionary.com/library/misspelled.html>this says so too.

Damn.
I'd like to change my answer to misspelled. For some reason people seem to want to spell it as "mispelled". They can't even get that word right, which is kind of funny.

OED lists it as "mis-spell v.".

And there goes all my respect for you. Although that's more of a speech error than spelling mistake.

The captcha was "continued labutest" and that seems appropriate.

"Lose" and "loose". Fix your grammar kids, please.

The words you're and your, but I guess you could say they have more to do with grammar rather then spelling.
The English language is a bit odd though, look at the actor Sean Bean, why is his name pronounced Shaun Bean, rather then Seen Bean.

A collage is actually a thing

The one that bothers me the absolute most is "definitely". It's often written as "defiantly".

I think that every keyboard should, from now on, have a zapper in it and a way to detect whether the person actually means "definitely" or not, and if they do mean "definitely" and write "defiantly", they should be zapped with ever increasing voltage until they either a) learn or b) get zapped right out of the fucking gene pool because they're too stupid to do anything for humanity.

Good on you for trying to be smart with the "Collage" thing, but he meant when people spell it "collage" instead of the actual "college".

The one that annoys me is "definately" >.>
