50% Americans Can't Spell Simple Words...Can You?
"Let's allow people greater freedom to spell logically," said John Wells, a linguist with the University College London.
"It's time to remove the fetish that says that correct spelling is a principal mark of being educated. Let's spell logically just as you do in Spanish, Italian or Swedish," he added.
Meanwhile, commonly misspelled words have drawn the ire of dictionary publishers.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, for example, words such as address, beautiful, immediate and skillful are worries for would-be perfectionists.
