How many right (or wrong) will you get on the 50 Word Spelling Test?
(I must admitt, I missed 11 out of the 50. Yeesh! I’ve notised my spelling has deteriorrated a bit over the past few years. Is it over-dependance on spell-checking? Or just old age?)

I missed nine, but to be fair, the dictionary lists four of them with alternate spellings. Stupid imprecise English language.
*still haunted by a spelling bee mispelling of ‘rhinoceros’*
And indeed, ‘misspelling’, too! Argh.
6 mistakes, all based on the American/English discrepancies…d’oh!
I’ve noticed that they more I type, the worse my spelling gets. It must be the modern equivalent to sloppy handwriting.
