Is there always one word that stumps you on the spelling?

[suzy1124]

Mine is " recommend " and " occasion "

[Gravy]

That happens to me...funnily enough with more easily spelled words, I always just check the spelling if I can.
Doesn't make me feel any less like a fool though

Exercise. I always want to write excersize for some reason.
Definition. This is because when I was a kid, I had a "fun" dictionary that gave "deFUNitions" of words (according to the cover), and I thought that was how you really spelled the word.
And any word that has a double consonant in one place and a single consonant in another place.
For example, recommend and occasion would get me too!!! Like suzy!!!!

Clearly, YOUR spelling of " exerc-IZE " makes more sense.

Isn't it odd how it's the more simple words that tend to stump us...

Occur.

Is it two "cc"'s or two "rr"'s? Thank goodness for spellcheck.
