Today the word "group" looks fundamentally misspelled to me

[Orrex]

What words, to you, seem likewise inherently goofy that way?

1. Occasion always looks wrong to me, as does vacuum.

[Orrex]

4. I occassionally spell it "vaccuum," myself

They seldom slip into my finished writing, but during the draft phase these errors are insidious!

[zingaro]

8. Yep. Evil little things.

[MissMillie]

2. maybe today you're looking for a

grope



instead?

5. What do you mean "today?"

3. yes and it drives me nuts when that happens.

It's a common occurrence for me (there's one I never know if it's right, 'occurrence') to look at it too much and then it becomes foreign. Exercise is another word I have a really, really hard time spelling.

[Orrex]

6. The thing that bothers me is I'm really not a dummy

But these pretty basic glitches keep tripping me up.

7. guard for me

i'll spend forever flipping the "u" and the "a"

[zingaro]

9. and gauge. How wrong does that look?

[treestar]

10. Occurrence always bothers me

And occasion. I'm never sure it's right.

11. I remember the first time that happened to me.

By. Is that a word? "By."

It's happened many times since.

12. I've lost confidence in "fourth", among others
