JOURNAL | Spelling Booboos...

Spelling Booboos...


I must admit that spelling was rather a challenge for me back in high school. I was looking through my old high school test papers and I found some rather funny spelling I made during a short quiz.


Vanal = X
The correct spelling is Banal.
I just thought that "Banal" was too Tagalog so I opted to use "V" instead of "B"

Dane = X
The correct spelling is Deign
But seriously, there's a word such as Great Dane, so I trusted my guts

Fasaute = X
The correct spelling is Facade
Okay, this is a French word and not English

Hayday = X
The correct spelling is Heyday
It's funny when you read it in Tagalog, "Hay day..." it's like whining on your housemaid

Havias Corpus = X
The correct spelling is Habeas Corpus
Don't blame me. I wasn't born during Marcos regime

Gnu = X
The correct spelling is Gnome
I swear I didn't hear the complete word because I was busy thinking about "Havias"
