Toronto is always Toronot. Freudian slip, or what?

liaison.

I used to spell "definitely" wrong until grade 11 advanced English when a girl in my class correctly spelled it while I got it wrong. I have never, not ever, misspelled definitely since. Never.

I always have to think about "business" and "medieval". And, on days when I'm feeling exceptionally stupid, words like "the". (Ok, not really. But, haven't you ever had one of those moments when the spelling of the simplest word completely evades you? I hate that. It's like forgetting your name or something.)

The only way I can remember how to spell definitely is to highlight that it contains the word finite.
Where would the extra I in Scotia go?

Half the time I realize that when I post a comment I have typed in my handle as mamatuilip.

I also spell because like 'becuase' a lot.

The one word I can never spell right is occurrance. See?

i always have too many m's and o's and r's in tomorrow and because always comes out becuase.
