Spelling
I consider myself to be a great speller and was ashamed to be corrected by Kevin for the following words:
Ornery : mean, obstinate - I have been spelling this word as "awnry"
Rapport : close friendship - I have been spelling this word as "repoire"
How could I have gotten away with these spellings for years and never have been corrected by teachers or friends :( . I may have even used "repoire" in a resume!!! How embarrassing!
I would have to say that hors d'oeuvre is the hardest word for me to remember how to spell. I keep wanting to swap the "v" and "r"....
