This is intended to challenge those of mental stealth or totally frustrate those of us with normal brain capacity. The title of this challenge is "Spellbinder". A test of some 60 common but hard-to-spell English words was given to 800 college graduates - among them; a high proportion of teachers, editors, journalists, proofreaders, advertising men and women. Not a single one of these linguistically sophitiscated people got a perfect score. The 10 words they missed most often are listed below, grotesquely misspelled. TRY YOUR LUCK AT IDENTIFYING THE CORRECT WORD!!
 
  1. ass'-uh-9
  2. brag-uh-doe'-C-O
  3. rare'-uff-i
  4. lick'-wuff-i
  5. puh-vill'-yun
  6. ver-mill'-yun
  7. im-pah'-stir
  8. mock'-uh-sun
  9. uh-kahm'-uh-date
  10. kon-sen'sus
