Spelling 6 - Add a Letter

If someone speaks as follows ‘you THERE, come HERE and HEAR what I say carefully’ it is possible that you might write it as ‘‘you THEIR, come HEAR and HERE what I say carefully.’ Therefore, in order not to make mistakes it is up to you to practice regularly and learn all the spellings thoroughly and more importantly remember them while using them in the written form.

Sometimes, a single letter is the difference between the correct spelling and the wrong spelling. If you run through a majority of the words you will find that you are off the mark by a single letter. For instance your favourite snack the BISCUIT is not BISCUT and you need to remember to add an I after the U.

More often than not you would be correct if you follow a pronunciation and write down the spellings. However, there are exceptions and it is the exceptions that you must learn and practice to improve your spelling. Take this quiz and test your knowledge of spellings.
