Necessary was one of mine for ages, until my wife took the piss and I made sure to learn it.

Restaurant and Guarantee are two that spring to mind.

Only one c is necessary is the way I have always remembered it.

I'm English so I spell it the English way rather than the US way.

Out of interest, how do you spell it?!

Hello AM..

I only checked it because I know your spelling is excellent..

I would probably use Diarrhoea .. I would need to Google it.

Or just say The Sh**s :)

[aquarius moon]

I agree my spelling is pretty good Foxy.

Thanks for the compliment.

Stick with the sh**s. There's loads of it on here. :)

compliment

[aquarius moon]

Thanks steveo but I got there a minute before you!

As soon as I had time to read it back I saw that I'd made a mistake.

Ohhhhh! diarrhoea

[goosey-goosey]

Discreet and discrete.

And, if you're a Brit writing US English (it happens), you have to learn to mis-spell words like cancelled, labelled, and clarinettist - canceled, labeled, and clarinetist to Americans. It does your head in.

[Townleygreen]

two of the most commonly mis-spelt words amongst teenagers I have taught are business and valleys - buisness and vallies were the commonest spellings.
