The Twelve Letter Words People Spell Wrong Most
Three errors account for nearly every mistake at this length: a doubled consonant reduced to one, -ance written where -ence belongs, and -tion written where -sion belongs.

Independance โ Independence โ
Transmition โ Transmission โ
Succesfully โ Successfully โ
Surveillence โ Surveillance โ
Refridgerator โ Refrigerator โ
Dissapointed โ Disappointed โ
Accidentaly โ Accidentally โ
Apreciation โ Appreciation โ
The rule behind all ten: when a prefix ends in the same letter the root begins with, both letters stay. Dis- plus appointed keeps both the S and the A, and doubles the P that is already in appoint.
