10 Commonly Misspelt Words – Quiz 2020
No matter how well you are in terms of spoken English, 90% of the people who took this quiz failed miserably. I tried myself and boy, what an epic fail it was! All these years I thought accommodate is spelt with two ‘Cs’ and one ‘M’ and here I am facing the reality.
The one reason I love and detest the most about this language is there are ample of words that are spelt one way and pronounced differently. Now we don’t need to get into technicalities such as homonym, homophone etc.
If you feel you are a maestro, here’s a quick challenge. Just 10, only 10 words to check your proficiency. If you could score at least 7 or more, Congratulations you are the new Mr/Ms Spell bee.
Go ahead, epiphany is about to hit.
