I've taught myself to spell "believe" right every time by just imagining the word "lie" in the middle, so now I just need to find a trick to make other ie words more memorable!

It doesn't even look right. I guess it can be remembered by remembering that it's a weird spelling.

This brought me back to third grade and the awkward moment I forgot how to spell "of." I just could not pull it out of my brain: Uv? Av? Uvv?queeennnkatie wrote: ↑05 May 2017, 14:02 Sociopath, Necessary.
But my main dilemma is spelling small words and then they don't look right, when in reality, its correct. Those... THOSE are my Achilles heel.
(more, are, out, shut, etc.)
Nowadays I blame my decline in spelling ability on spell checker and middle-age brain.
