didn't notice spelling!
didn't notice spelling!
That was great. No sarcasm intended
great one I loved it
I felt right about the right word but I was a bit fuzzy on the correct spellings of the other words .. I knew they didn't seem spelled right but .. maybe we'll get a spell checker in the comment box .. could cut and paste out of Word I guess (seems like cheating) .. One of my worst habits is prepair instead of prepare ..
Wow, that was good! I noticed that the title was spelled wrong(sovereign I think is how you spell it)but i didnt think anything about it. oh well
Oooooo I'm so excited cause I got it!!!! yay!
too easy, but still fun
LOL! I love this teaser! I fell for the double letter things as well. I have to admit, I like to be the spelling/grammar police and this just made me crack up laughing that I got it wrong. Thanks for the pick-me-up!
There is another possible answer. All of the words end in consonants except Inoculate, which ends in a vowel. Very simple answer, but still a possible answer.
Very Well Done
I just thought somebody didn't know how to spell......
I thought it was the answer because it was the only one without a E caus every other word has a E. So did anyone else but me love Orlando Bloom's acting skills cause orly is Orlando Bloom's nickname!!!
I was focused on the double lettering and the spelling went right past me... DUH...
And here I was ...so smug and sure about my spelling prowess ...correcting other people all the time ...thanks sooooooo much, fishmed, for bursting my little bubble and helping me sho the wurld wat a krapi speler I yam!
Really, a good one to add to my faves. Nice job!

That was easy . . . but it was good.
This one goes in my favorites! I can't believe I didn't catch the spelling errors...and I was a classroom teacher for 11 years! I feel so "duh"!
2 WORDS- EASY & BORING. BUT GOOD JOB I GUESS.
Picked out the word that didn't belong, but no clue as to why it didn't. Noticed a couple of misspellings, but didn't see the significance. Humbling for those of us who consider ourselves good spellers, and a reminder to really SEE what's out there.
That was a good one It took me awhile to figure it out, then I realized that the words were spelled wrong.
Haha! I got it right, but i didn't know how to spell any of those words, so i just picked the only one w/o an "e"
Me too. It was the only word without an e. lol Did not even think of spelling. but is a good one
That was good. I didn't even try it cause I had no idea. I'm so bad at group puzzles I always get them wrong.
i noticed all the other ones were spelt wrong but i didnt make the link! DOH!
Dude, that was a good one I was coparing and contrasting all along not even making myself aware to the fact that it was spelled wrong.
didn't see it at all, abcess looked funny but it didn't register either.
Total miss sheesh, Good stuff.

I wasn't in the mood to do really smart thinking lol. And who knows whst half of thoses words ment anyway! like i knew if they were spelled wrong! i've never seen some of those words before in my life. Guess im stupid. didnt like it
way over my head... I was reading this and saw a couple words spelled wrong, and was thinking "maybe I should submit a correction of those spellings" I even had the correction part filled out (in a separate Internet Explorer window) when I gave up on the teaser and looked at the answer... boy did I feel stupid!!
lol for some reason i got it right away
I glad you all liked it. Thanks for the comments.
Great job!
Well that just proves me how bad my english really is Great job fishmed, quite a trick this one! Keep up the good job
Dang! Got me!
Very tricky!!! I'm a terrible speller, so I didn't even notice the errors. I thought it was sovreign because it was the only one without double letters. Great job, fish!!!
