    I was just talking about this particular word with my nephew last week, I am surprised by how many people spell "definitely" incorrectly(and I am not talking about just on this site).
    Also someone here on Pet Talk had posted this free online spell check site a while ago, and I have added it to my favorites.

    Just a real quick story, when I first started this job it involved a writing a summary of the file for the next person to use in their job. I always thought of myself as a good speller. Imagine my embarrassment when after a week or two one of my co-workers came over and very politely offered me a dictionary to use. Moral of the story even if you think you know, it never hurts to check.

    Ginger's Mom - I will always thank my Dad for helping me learn to spell that word

    He taught it to me as - def-i-nite-ly
    (pronounced - deaf-i-night-lee)

    Made sure I never forgot that there was an I in there

    Thanks for the spellcheck Joyce. I bookmarked it too for future use. My spelling has degraded so much over the years that I have to check and re-check all the time. It never does hurt to check, especially when the old memory starts to go when we get older I've come to the conclusion that some people spell incorrectly just to get attention or to be different. Surely, constant spelling errors that are so blatant, can't be real. Right??


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
