Quote : | "While 281 spellers compete in the 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee by spelling words that can make one's head spin (“weissnichtwo” and “cabotinage” to name a couple), there are many words we come across regularly that are commonly misspelled, according to the Oxford English Corpus.
We've written silly sentences for each letter so you can try your hand at correcting the misspelled words. We're warning you: It's tough." |
Lots of fun!
My results:
Quote : | "YOUR OVERALL SCORE
41 Number of misspellings you corrected 1 Number of misspellings you missed 0 Number you guessed were wrong, but were spelled correctly" |
The one I missed isn't even something I have trouble with ever... just rushed through it.
Don't cheat by typing into Word or on here! I did, however, type some spellings out in Notepad to see what looked correct to me. Notepad does not underline misspellings.
And go! 6/2/2014 8:52:25 PM
