50 Most Commonly Misspelled English Words
B2 VocabularyTest yourself on the 50 English words that learners — and many native speakers — misspell most often. Every word on this list breaks a common expectation: double letters you can't hear (accommodate, embarrass), silent letters (foreign, knowledge, rhythm), or suffixes that trip up even confident writers (definitely, separate, privilege).
Ideal for B1 and B2 learners preparing for exams, emails, and academic writing. Listen to each word, type your answer, and get instant feedback. Easy mode shows the first letter; Normal mode gives you the definition and audio; Hard mode is dictation only.
Once you can spell all 50, try the IELTS spelling collection for exam-specific vocabulary.
