I can NEVER remember how to spell the word restaurant!! Every time that I go to type it I have to look it up :rolleyes: I always want to spell it restaraunt or something like that :rolleyes:
I was an excellent speller when I was in school but it seems that that ability has atrophied a bit since then :rolleyes: :D
I was on a really potent cold medicene once and I forgot how to spell my name and the word "the" lol :D
I also used to be excellent at spelling in school, however have since went downhilll and getting worse every year.
These are some words I have a hard time spelling, and if they are spelled correctly it's purely coincidental!
Diarrhea
Chihuahua
Muzzle
Dachschand
Rottweiller
Most of them are words I have to write at work and it bothers me that I can't consistently spell them correctly because it's on a medical file and should be spelled properly.
I have a hard time spelling anaesthesia, had to look it up again. :rolleyes:
junescrater716! It's medicine. ;)
What I don't understand is that some people mix up "then" and "than". It has entirely different meanings.
Is it seperate or separate? I could look it up in the dictionary every day and I still wouldn't remember. :rolleyes:
I have trouble with restaurant too!
And apparently!
Thanks god for my Google toolbar spellchecker! :p
ususally schnauzer. :p I am pretty good at spelling other words, though. :)
Along the same lines..... I always have to look up stationary and stationery when I am using them in a sentence.Quote:

I'm with you on that. I can't spell Restaurant either. I think that's the only word... not sure haha.
I always made streight "A's" in spelling at school but now I can't remember how to spell ANYTHING!

I can't spell restaurant either! I always have a hard time with it... It is annoying.
