#at least the word 'difinatly' has the decency to look weird enough for me to remember the 'e'

'Definitely' and 'scene' are my mortal enemies when it comes to spelling.
#'Especially' is also up there#but I've learnt a trick to spell it consistantly#I'm a phonetic speller so any word with atypical spelling/pronunciation (that I have not memorized) is hard for me#For example whenever I spell 'Definitely' I leave out the last 'e' 'cause when you add '-ly' to a word that ends in 'e'#you knock off said 'e' and yet you don't do that for 'definitely' and a few other words that are not popping up in my brain#(Don't worry#at least the word 'difinatly' has the decency to look weird enough for me to remember the 'e'#...#Okay that second 'i' from the right was on accident#alongside a few other things...)#On rare occasions my handwriting causes a word to look weird#As to why 'scene' is listed#I wrote that word a lot this afternoon and no joke I could not tell if I was spelling it correctly#it always looked weird even when I figured out the spelling#'You sure you spelt it right!' <- I stared at the word 'Definitely' long enough to the point I had to double-checked myself#even though I checked the spelling of 'definite' and slapped '-ly' on it#(Even the word 'definite' looks wrong#Honestly I'm starting to think the way I pronounce shit is part of the issue)#Sorry for the tag ramble#Just wanted to vent about spelling without The Interwebs/spellcheck#key's post#vent
