*Notes*
Foreign: Like ‘believe’ and ‘weird’, one of several words that violate the i-before-e rule.
Its / It’s: The apostrophe marks a contraction of “it is.”
Lightning: not to be confused with Lightening
Mispell Misspell: What is more embarrassing than to misspell the name of the problem? Just remember that it is mis + spell and that will spell you the worry about spelling “misspell.”
Playwright: Remember that a play writer in Old English was called a “play worker” and “wright” is from an old form of “work” (wrought iron, etc.)
Principal / Principle: The spelling principle to remember here is that the school principal is a prince and a pal (despite appearances)–and the same applies to anything of foremost importance, such as a principal principle. A “principle” is a rule.
Queue: Means to be in line, so just remember there are 2 -ue’s in line behind q.
