Sometimes, English just doesn’t make sense.
We’ve all got those words that, no matter how hard we try, no matter how diligently we memorize, we just can’t spell right.

Thankfully, we’re not alone. The following are some of the most commonly misspelled words (ironically, “misspelled” is one of them).
1. Cemetery
Steven King ruined this word- and the prospect of ever burying our pets anywhere- for everyone forever.
2. Squirrel

If there are two r’s, surely there should be two l’s. And what letters make up the sound “sqwuh”? It just doesn’t feel right.
3. Mediterranean
Stupid Latin cognates getting in the way of Googling my vacation.
4. Restaurant

Unlike the others, this one’s tough to replace with an easier word as well.
5. Judgment

The letters D, G, and M should never be next to each other.
6. Embarrassment

“Facepalm” will work just fine instead.
7. Jewelry
20th Century Fox / Via thebillfold.com
8. Definitely
Universal Pictures / Via reactiongifs.com
Apparently the most commonly misspelled word in the English language.
9. Cologne
This one is infamously disastrous but, thankfully, not that common.
