    Hi, I’m a writer here at Bored Panda. When I’m not writing, you can find me reading books, binge-watching TV shows, making pottery and jewelry, or cooking. I love good food and good company. I also love my dog and cat who bring me so much joy every day.

    I got them all right. But then, to me, the right spellings just look "right". The others do not.

    If you read a lot it's pretty easy to recognize the correct spelling.

    I'm a little surprised that I got 17/20 , although English is my second language and I was always just a mediocre student in English. I know I got better the last years because I read a lot but I still thought I'm not that good. But then there was many of "is it then or than", "is it your or you're" and this was one of the first things we learned because it's so important. Like in German the "das or dass".... It's important and to my suprise always easy for me but for many others not so much....(Edit: autocorrect)

    The same result, mostly from distraction - verbs are from Latin origin, no big difference from most European languages. For me more difficult is to recognise what people speak. not write.

    I was born & raised in the US, and it wasn't till I was working in my 20's that someone told me that it is height all the time, not heighth. I assumed it was like width & depth.
