INTRODUCTION | vii
Introduction

“I put a spell on you / Because you’re mine.” Whether
sung languorously by Nina Simone or wildly by Screamin’
Jay Hawkins, these lines from the song “I Put a Spell on
You” remind us of a peculiar truth. The noun “spell” with
its meaning of a charm put on someone stems from the
very same word as “spell,” the verb that refers to naming
off the letters that make up a word.
This surprising ancestry lets us start off this introduc-
tion to Words You Should Know How to Spell with a more
glamorous aura than spelling usually receives. Equally
startling is the fact that the word “glamor” is a variant
of the word “grammar.” Those of us with awful memo-
ries of underlining the subject once and the verb twice
nd it amazing—but it’s essentially the same story. Hav-
ing power over words was what seemingly gave sorcer-
ers their prowess. In a world where recording devices lay
far in the future and where most people were illiterate,
the very phenomenon of writing packed a magic of its
own. Imagine being able to preserve a thought forever by
making some little scratch marks! Today, writing is not as
novel; nonetheless, power over words remains a vitally
important skill.
viii | INTRODUCTION
WHY IS SPELLING IMPORTANT?
A misspelled word in an otherwise well-executed report is
like egg on the face of an otherwise impeccably turned-out
individual. At a minimum, misspellings can suggest slop-
piness, a telling lack of attention to detail. No one wants
to write “You are my best fried” to his buddy, although,
of course, the buddy will know what you mean. Yes, good

friends do read our minds, but we can’t count on mental
telepathy with everyone. At their worst, misspellings can
lead to downright confusion and misinterpretation. If you
received an e-mail that said a co-worker had a “rye look”
on his face, you might think of meanings that a “wry look”
could never convey. Similarly, an imminent storm has
only a minuscule chance of becoming an eminent storm.
(And yes, “minuscule” is related to the world of math—
“minus”—not to the world of tiny—“mini.”)
WHY DO WE MISSPELL?
What’s the source of spelling errors? Carelessness, for start-
ers. Lack of sufcient knowledge. Textual editors of F. Scott
Fitzgerald, a notoriously weak speller, are still wondering
about Fitzgerald’s use of “orgastic” near the end of The Great
Gatsby. Did he mean “orgiastic?” “Orgasmic?” We don’t know.
Sometimes, particularly in informal contexts, spelling vari-
ants are intentional. They can signal proud rebellion against
the mainstream as in the spelling of “boys” in the movie Boyz
n the Hood. Using a z instead of an s for a plural has gained
some currency. Will it ever lose its rebel status and inltrate
mainstream spelling? It’s possible—the plural of “eye” used
to be “eyne”—but none of us are likely to be around for the
corporate report that refers to stockz and bondz.
Similarly, technological developments that began in the
late twentieth century have made most people—particularly
INTRODUCTION | ix
those under, say, thirty—users of a new kind of spell-
ing shorthand. R U OK? Gr8! C U at 9. (New Yorker writer
Adam Gopnik had a wonderful anecdote about frequent
instant messaging with his teenage son—who was in the

next room—and believing for months that his son’s “LOL”
sign-off meant “lots of love.”) Expressions like these make
you an instant member of an in-group, but their primary
benet is speed. You want to be quick about answering your
pal—especially if you’re typing with your thumb. Will any
of these abbreviations ever come into standard English? The
letter and number hybrid has a certain chirpy appeal, but
it would seem inappropriate to read that the patient was
“4tunate that the lab test showed the 2mor 2B B9.” Police
dogs as members of the K-9 corps may be as far as this device
will go, but you never know—historians of the early days of
printing inform us that some spellings were altered because
printers needed more or fewer letters to justify their margins.
Yes, many factors produce deviations from orthodox
spelling. Perhaps foremost among them is the very nature
of the English language. Writers of Italian and Spanish—
those beautifully phonetic tongues—need to worry much
less about spelling; it’s the spelling of English that is incon-
sistent, irregular, and (some say) insane. Mark Twain is
well known for a hilarious piece called “The Awful German
Language,” but he might have done an equally elaborate
onslaught on English, a language that once spelled ghost
“gost” (which replicates its sound) but went to “ghost,”
the Dutch spelling, under the inuence of one individual.
Other wits and linguists have made the public aware of how
thorny English spelling is. (Consider the pronunciation of
the similarly spelled “rough,” “cough,” and “through,” and
rejoice that the western hemisphere has dropped the British
“plough” and “hiccough.”)
x | INTRODUCTION

COULDN’T SPELLING BE SIMPLER?
Over the centuries, language experts and laypeople have
advocated reform. Perhaps most famous to ordinary users
of the language is George Bernard Shaw, who left money in
his will to reward the creator of the best phonetic (fonetik?)
alphabet in English. (The winner and his system were soon
forgotten.) Similarly, it was Shaw who called our attention
to the fact that “ghoti” could be a logical spelling for “sh”:
gh as in “cough,” o as in “women,” and ti as in “nation.”
Even Theodore Roosevelt weighed in on the subject of
spelling, with a plea that our spelling be made “a little less
foolish and fantastic.”
Despite this off-and-on hubbub, nothing much has
changed. Yes, in the United States we can now write
“humor,” not “humour,” but we’re still writing “thorough”
for what sounds like “thuro.” Not to mention that we write
(or try to write) “ophthalmology” for a word almost every-
one pronounces “ofthamology.” If you decide to work for—
or at least to cheer for—further radical changes in standard
English spelling, ne. In the meantime, you’re going to
have to cope with the current system as best you can.
WHAT ABOUT SPELL CHECK?
We’re not mind readers, but we suspect you’ve been
thinking, “but spell check has changed all that!” To some
extent, yes—and hurrah for that! But as many writers have
learned the hard way, spellcheckers can sometimes hurt.
Have you ever offered spell check a misspelling and gotten
back something far from what you had in mind? A friend
was recently trying to write “nonchalant.” Spell check’s
best guess was “non-sealant”—not quite the same thing!

Similarly, the spell check program of an acquaintance in
the health profession let him down badly when a draft of
INTRODUCTION | xi
a report referred to chronic hick upping. Even worse, spell-
ing checkers are totally impotent in regard to determining
what correctly spelled word ts your context. When you
write that the vice president of the company had “free
reign” to make decisions, your spell checker doesn’t know
that you meant to use “free rein,” a metaphor drawn not
from royalty but from horses. And although many people
have their laptops practically welded to their hands, some
of us still have moments of writing when we’re away from
a computer and its program.
YOU CAN BE A BETTER SPELLER
It’s not only helpful to bulk up the spelling lobe of your
brain; it’s also possible. This book can help you. Let’s begin
to look at some specics. As you glance through this book,
you’ll see columns of common misspellings and their cor-
rect counterparts. You now have instant access to the cor-
rect spelling of more than 12,500 words, organized with
speed and convenience in mind. This book takes the guess-
work out of spelling. In our Spell It Right Appendix you’ll
also nd various cautions, memory hooks, notes about
words that do or do not follow rules, and guides to help
you sort out tricky pairs such as affect and effect or trip-
lets like censor, sensor, and censure. Adopting our tips and
memory tricks can assist you, and beginning to work out
tips and hooks of your own can be even more benecial.
This dictionary also helps by being a book that ts in your
hand, your pocket, and your bag. Whatever your goal, this

is the book for you!
