Below vs Bellow

Please find bellow the description:

Did you notice that I made a spelling mistake? I found that I often write bellow instead of below, also in some official emails (e.g. please find bellow the attachment). The word below means underneath or toward a lower place (Dictionary), where as the word bellow means to roar or to shout in a deep voice (Dictionary). As both words are valid, our spelling suggester does not show any mistake while typing.

Analyzed as Analysed

I frequently commit this spelling mistake. Analyzed is the correct spelling as per US English. Most of the time, I write it as Analysed. This is wrong in US English. However this is the correct spelling in UK English. So, if you are communicating in US English, then you need to follow the first one. Analyzing is also for Analysing in US English.

Yacht or Yatch?

 Today, while working on a workout on the  Elevate app, I came across a word and I spelled it as Yatch. And it was wrong, obviously. I might have learned the correct spelling of Yacht when I was a kid. But over the years, I had remembered it as Yatch.  I guess it happened because I did not knew the correct pronunciation of the word. Instead of pronouncing it as  jɒt , I had alway pronounced it as  j atʃ , similar to 'match'.
