Why do people struggle to spell words? I'm only 16, and I can spell any word without looking it up.

Nobody likes a clever Dick.

Besides which, you'll probably lose a lot of it once you're not constantly under teachers' scrutiny. I had to put a lot more effort into it when I started writing fiction; two years later, I'm probably about as good as I'll ever be. Still struggle with double letters though - then again, I am (believe it or not) quite badly dyslexic.

i know how to spell it, but i always write Excercise instead of exercise. When I was doing PE this annoyed me.

Success and necessary are ones that I always struggle with.

I'd like to thank Grammarly for correcting me for this post. :tongue:

My spelling is pretty decent, so I've been told.

Can't think of any word I can't spell properly.

I can spell it correctly now, but I was unaware for 15 years that "Febuary" had a second R in it.

One day I was writing down maths homework in my diary when the date caught my eye. I turned to the person next to me and said "Look at this they spelled Febuary wrong!"
"...What's wrong about it?"
"Look, there's another R."
"That's meant to be there..."
"...Are you serious?"
"Yep."

I then turned to the person on the other side of me.
"Did you know about this?"
"About what?"
"February has 2 Rs in it."
She looks in her diary.
"Oh my god it does!"
"How have we never seen this?!"
"I don't know!"

Not sure if I'm more worried about your grammar or the fact nobody has pointed it out yet.
