Canceled as Cancelled

I noticed that I have been using "Canceled" as "Cancelled" at the places where I don't have spell check. Suddenly when I copied some text and pasted it on a text area on Firefox, then I noticed this spelling mistake.

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.

Violet or Violate?

Recently while writing violate , I typed violet . Because these words are similar and I type very fast, I often end up typing violet even when I am trying to type violate . Violet is a colour while violate means break or fail to comply with (a rule or formal agreement), treat (something sacred) with irreverence or disrespect or rape or sexually assault (someone).

Is it enquiry or inquiry?

British English uses both ‘enquiry’ and ‘inquiry’, but not in the same way as American English, which favors the ‘i’ spelling only. Enquiry - ‘To enquire’ means to request information/look into. From this comes the noun ‘a/the enquiry’ Inquiry - This is favored in English only when talking of investigations. via Janmejay Pati
