    Americans seem to have tones of problems spelling 'Ireland'... And EVERYONE has a problem spelling 'dieing' correctly. 'Dying' is the process through which clothes are changed colour. To die (i.e. what happens when you're killed) is 'dieing'... Weird eh...

    Oh, and Defense/Practice/Offense and their multiple spellings... That confuses me always....

    The hardest word to spell is definAtely definItely.

    I consider myself a pretty good speller; especially considering I'm not obssessed with it or grammar, but I had a problem with this for a while, and it seems like a LOT of other people do to.
