Do you remember grade school spelling tests? Do you also watch the Scripps National Spelling Bee on ESPN? Well, maybe people think spelling is a sport (but it's not). If you did well in school when it came to spelling, we’re willing to bet that you probably wanted a varsity jacket to showoff your hard work and mental ability. We hope you’ll consider this spelling quiz a substitute. Would you be able to spell these incorrectly spelled words?
These words aren’t too difficult. In fact, you most likely say them every day, write them down, or type them out. However, does your phone autocorrect your spelling mistakes before you can edit it? Does the squiggly red line disgrace you so aggressively that you’ve given up on spelling? Be warned, this quiz looks and perhaps feels misleadingly simple. But it’s far from that. We’re betting if you’re coming into this quiz confident, you’re going to get more wrong answers than you think you will. If not, why don't you prove us wrong?
