Perhaps this is because many of the words are spelled in unusual ways that are not phonetic and do not follow a consistent logic. There are even rules such as, “I before E but never after C”, but even “rules” like these have exceptions. Then there are the words that begin with silent letters and such unusual parings like “ps-”, “ph-” and “xy-”. There are many words that are learned only by repetition and memorization. And consequently, there are words that every anglophone has trouble with. Think you are a perfect speller? Why don’t you try this little quiz of 25 of the most common misspelled words, and see how you phare. :)
