Default Stupid and easy words I always screw up spelling.

Thank God for spell checkers.

I consider myself a decent speller. I generally don't have problems with the spelling of words, and usually, if I have a spelling mistake, it's a typo. Grammar and punctuation are different matters. Don't be a nit and correct me on any mistakes on this post, please.

Anyway, it never seems to fail that when I send out an email with any of the following words, my spell checker always catches me. I don't know why I can't get these seemingly simple spellings in my head:

tomorrow
children
eligibility

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Anyone else have any "problem" words?

I've seen "ridiculous" spelled wrong way too many times.

I can't remember how to spell these words:

genius
seperately

They might be wrong now.

I always want to spell it "childeren".

EDIT: Looking at it, I know it's wrong, but it I just automatically type it spelled incorrectly.

Paluka - there's "a rat" in "separate".
