How WELL can you SPELL???

[Jeanny]

well, I messed up on weird... I'm from the old school.... i before e except after c and sometimes y... I know there are a few more ei words out there (their)

 

[Pin Wizard]

Ack! 11 of 15 correct. I need work. I've always LOVED spelling! But some of these had me staring and saying...hmmmmmm.

 

[DukeStreetKing]

Are you a lexicographer?
Your spelling power places you firmly among the word elite! You got 14/15 correct.

Dang it, I missed minuscule. But it is such a tiny mistake I won't count it!

12....I kept second guessing myself on one; should have went with my gut and I would have got 13.

 

[HollyJoy]

I got 10 right out of the 15. I don't consider myself a great speller, but was surprised! I got " weird, dumbbell, medieval, minuscule, and lightning (DUH!)" WRONG! lol

Well at least I'm good at something!

I got 13/15, and I consider myself a pretty good speller...on both of the ones I missed, I thought about it too much and didn't go with my initial instinct.

the words I missed were medieval/medeival and liaison/liason

 

[CruisingCA2005]

Woohoo....15/15 correct. LOL. It's funny because I had looked up sergeant and daiquiri in the past 6 weeks so they were fresh in my memory.

[Nutsy]

I got 12......couple of tricky ones in there

 

[Viking]

I got 13/15 - sufficient for not being a native speaker

MS Word doesn't catch "miniscule". And I did a Google Search on "miniscule". It seems to be widely accepted and as commonly used as "minuscule". But the original Latin term does appear to be "minusculus". Darn it!
