Do you know how to spell "definitely"?

[weg]

Just wondering, since this seems to be the most frequently misspelt word on MR..

To be honest, the clue is in the thread title...

No, but OS X does

 

[adrianblaine]

I used to spell a lot of words incorrectly until I started using OS X and Firefox spell checking on posts. Now it is mostly my questionable grammar...

definitely

The title of most misspelled word goes to our "I before E except after C" friends:

RECEIVE and WEIRD

Surely spelling lose as loose must be the most common spelling error on MR? Jars every time I see it!

What about 'their?'

Meh, I've always thought misspelled was the past tense of misspell. Words. They're there, to each their own.

Isn't it misspelt?

 

[ErikCLDR]

When I type, no. When I right yes.

I am strange like that so I put "no"

Do you mean "write"?

Only in places where "whilst" won't cause giggles.

Whilst I'm neither a linguist nor a native speaker, I'm pretty sure that it's ok to use "misspelt" here ;-)

 

[Zwhaler]

I hate it... I always use MS word and I type it incorrectly, and even the spell checker doesn't know what the hell I typed in... no results come up! I usually spell it (massively incorrectly) definately

Well, i think that definitely definitively defines it.

This thread is definately rediculous.

i try to ignore spelling errors. i just don't want to nitpick, but most irksome to me are alot (ugh) and the confusion people have between its and it's. the most understandable mistake to me is not knowing the difference between awhile and a while.


*edit*
i just remembered the most annoying: "off of."
