What word can you never spell correctly on the first attempt?

Necessarily. I consider myself good with spelling but that one I always misspell. I always want to add a second ‘c’ lol

Also, the word nauseous. I have no idea how to spell it, I just let autocorrect figure it out 😂
 
For the longest time I couldn't spell schedule to save my life. I remember it now, but I had to Google that one so many times.
 
conscience (usually mix up the i and e)
attitude (i keep thinking it has more d's)
embarass is supposed to be embarrass (i legit spelled it wrong while doing this lol)
 
occasion/occasionally.. for some reason i always throw out an ocassion or occassion at first
 
i before e except after c words ALWAYS stump me, i don't think i've ever spelled received right except for now
 
I always struggle with conveniently (thanks, autocorrect, for the help there). I used to struggle with definitely, but came up with a trick to remember it!
 
I'm sure there are more, but the ones that come to mind right now are: accommodate, embarrass, and occasionally. I'm pretty sure I see a pattern. 😅
Thank the heavens I am not the only one embarrassed about butchering the word embarrass! Do you get Cincinnati wrong too?? "Oh golly is it the N or the T I double???" I was in the state spelling bee as a child and still get these wrong. 😩

Hahaha
Thankfully I never come across Cincinnati, but I had to google it to make sure it was spelled correctly. I could also see myself struggling with Mississippi if I wasn't assigned that state for my project in primary school. 😆
What a coincidence!! I was also in the spelling bee, but I think I only made it to district/county/regional one, forgot which. 😅
 
I grew up believing it was spelled “pidgeon” (and not pigeon) because of Pokémon. So, even after learning the word, in fact, is lacking a “d”, I continue to spell it as such.
 
charcuterie always gets me

i'm blanking on other words but i'm sure i'll be back lol

What’s the trick for definitely? 🥺💕 On my phone autocorrect helps me but writing in person I almost always mess it up 😔

It's soo silly, and I don't know why it works, but I think "de-fin‐it" then I am fine remembering the -ely. I hope it works for you, but I would totally understand if not! I'm not sure how it works for me! (Now that I type it out like that, it looks like I'm talking about fish in a horrible manner).

Oh my goodness I didn’t even realize how it could seem like you’re talking about fish until you said that lol but I’ll keep this in mind! Remembering the -ely bit isn’t too tricky it’s the bulk of the word that confuses me. I think I try to put an e where there shouldn’t be lol so breaking it up into small bits will help! 🥰
 
Aside from nearly every word on this thread, I always stumble on restaurant. Whenever I have to type the word on Google I spell it as “resteraunt.” Thankfully autocorrect is finally noticing my error.
