Find the wrongly spelt word. If all four are correctly spelt, choose “All correct”.
Answer: C
Correct answer: Neccessary
Neccessary is the misspelling. The correct form is necessary - one c and two ses. The usual mnemonic is a shirt with one collar and two sleeves. The other three are correctly spelt and each is a trap in its own right. Rhythm keeps the Greek rh- and contains no conventional vowel letter at all, the y doing the work. Vacuum has a double u, from the Latin neuter ending - one of very few English words with that sequence, along with continuum and residuum. Achieve follows the rule i before e except after c, and belongs with believe, relieve and grieve. Its noun is achievement, which keeps the e before -ment.
