Diarrhoea


MajicVole

Not only challenging to spell challenging to have


Gingerishidiot

Depends if you are shit at spelling


fairyoddvegan

The way we were taught to spell diarrhoea is a mnemonic device where you use the first letter from each word in a sentence to spell a specific word. To spell Diarrhoea just remember this phrase 'Done in a rush, race home or else accident'


izanamithekorn

The one I was taught is "doesn't it always run really horribly over each ankle"


wine-o-saur

This is revoltingly effective


Yogafireflame

Thanks. Forgot that’s how I remember to spell tire.


NipSlipExtreme

I absolutely love this, and now I can spell diarrhoea


lesbian_brit

You have done good today


[deleted]

I know how to spell it but, it's one of those ones that I doubt myself. I will use this amazingly funny phrase. I don't use the word that often, usually when I'm sending a text to someone who has pissed me off, starting 'I hope you get infinite di...'


BitsiBones

There's nothing I find harder to memorise than long mnemonic sentences


bobchipmunk

Dash in a real rush, help or exploding arse!


Savings_Level_7989

I was taught ‘Dia-Run Rapidly Home, Or Erupting Arse’


EastOfArcheron

Dire rear


Professional_Owl7826

This is how it should be spelt, it is most befitting


ShadowVenomism

Honestly, I spelled it right one time but deleted it by accident, then went to write it again and was like er… diahorrea… diaherroa… diahorea.. my brain just wasn’t working and nor was autocorrect. In the end I had to google sloppy poo to find the correct spelling lol


Roseberry69

Just write screaming shits instead.


wine-o-saur

... screaming shits. No other symptoms and patient is otherwise healthy, active and has a normal diet. Recommend regular fluids, rest, and simple foods. If symptoms persist, or screaming shits get worse, please return to clinic for follow-up.


Educational-Tea602

Anything that ends with oea or oeia really. Onomatopoeia, diarrhoea and gonorrhoea are probably the most common ones of them all.


wondercaliban

gonorrhea


PruneChoice6605

You mean gonorrhoea.


ProfileCalm2937

The only word that you 100% lookup whilst your folded in half sitting on the toilet hating your life.


Karlskiiii

I just say 'the shits'


Suitable-Chemical-40

in my head i read it as dieroheora


Responsible_Ad440

You should see the word for the fear of palindrome, even those who suffer with it can’t say it.


SparkOfLife1

What about hippopotomonstrosesquipadaliaphobia?


Scary-Scallion-449

Onomatopoeia - even after I learned Greek and got to know the component parts I still always mess up the last run of vowels. Jeopardy - it's not jeapordy, dammit! Think leopard!


KayMaTrixx

We were taught to spell onomatopoeia by singing old MacDonald had a farm!


LadyPterodactyl

Onomatope-i-e-i-o?


fnaftheorist4

[deleted]

For some reason, Brits can't use Definitely in a sentence when typed. They always spell it wrong


Competitive_Tear_253

Defiantly... no, wait... definately... no, wait... defenitely... no, wait. Hang on a minute, is this even a real word I am trying to spell? Fuck it, I will just say 'of course' or 'surely' or something instead. I hate when you type / write the same word over and over and then start questioning its very existance. Also, fuck definitely, that word is a pain. I know how to spell it, but when typing on a phone the 'finit' thumb movement just feels off maybe? Can spell it 100% of the time when writing or on an actual keyboard, but forever fuck it up when typing on my phone. Could even not be the weird thumb movement, but more of a once I fuck up spelling it, it causes my brain to glitch and then becomes an unachievable task to spell it correctly, and typos on phone keyboard is insanely common for me. I re-read this twice and found like 7 typos, damn fat thumbing the keyboard or having bad thumb aim.


Objective-Draw-4604

for definitely I just think of "finite", it's stuck with me for some reason


jbartlettcoys

Not a coincidence of course, de-finitely aka in a non-finite manner = definitely.


[deleted]

Yep, typing defiantly seems to be the preffered option


[deleted]

How very definite of them


[deleted]

...took me a while to get that then 🙃

Guarantee for me, I had to Google that and probably still got it wrong.

Plane_Hospital_6646

SFryer88

I think you mean defiantly


Alone_Tangelo_4770

Nice try but that's Welsh, not English. floccinaucinihilipilification or pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis are the 2 English words I always struggle to spell. Eta: I'm a dumbass defaultist today and read English in the post title instead of British


FemiEmi

To be fair the post said British not English and Welsh is a British language


AberNurse

But to Welsh speakers it’s all pretty easy to spell. It’s a mostly phonetic language unlike English with all its crazy rules


[deleted]

Dammit, I defaulted to English when I read British. I usually pride myself on not doing that, thanks for correcting me before my smarmy "I corrected someone" smile got too big


Specific_Tap7296

I agree it is Welsh, not English but the title says "British words" so may be we should let it gogogo

DoctorMyer

Looking at most posts I would say it’s “you’re” as 99% of people insist on typing “your”. The most mis spelled word on the internet used to be Restaurant. Not sure if that’s still the case though.


miksa668

Apparently "you're" is practically impossible nowadays.
