If you know anything about me at all, it should be that I am a herendous speller. Absolutly terrible at the proper placement of letters in words with more than two sylabyles and eight letters.
One of my worst words has been "unfortunately." I seem to always add an extra "n" or "t" needlessly somewhere in the word. But one methode that I have found that works for me in learning to spell my diffiecult words has been breaking these words up into smaller words (even if it isnt the phynetical proper way of doing it.)
"Unfortunately" is a perfect example of this. The proper method liekly involves breaking the word up as follows: "un-fortun-ately." My perosnnel problem, and it is a personal provlem, is I dont even know how to spell fortune (two sylabule, seven letters)/. And the idea that I should drop the "e" and replace it with "ately" drive me stupid.
So here is my retarded method in action: "un-for-tuna-tely." If you read it out load it sounds something like, "one for tuna telly" which sounds like some kind of British or Irish old saying.
"know, what I mean mate? All for one and one for the tuna telly, heh?"
