What is a typical spelling mistake you make? (lemy.lol)

For me common spelling mistakes include confusing some of these word pairs.

  • loose vs. lose
  • then vs. than
  • were vs. where

For the pairs you mentioned this might help:

  • "loose" is a loose word, it's extra "o" makes it lanky, but "lose" lost an "o"
  • "then" is a reply to "when" and is spelt similarly rather "than" the comparison word
  • "where" is a question answered by "here;" "was" has no "h" and neither does "were"
