WOW 7/12 which considering I have Dyslexia is far better than I thought I would get - although I doubt I would ahve got such a score if they had been read out to me

Hmm, 6/12.
I suck at spelling but I pretty much always have so no great surprises there. Main problem - when you need double letters apparently.

6/12.

Though I'd never even heard of one of the words.
My speling was that bad as a child my mum bought me the Awful Spellers Dictionary.

6/12 explains why I love autocorrect :)

9. Cheating a bit that most of them are 'borrowed' words, IMO.

10 out of a possible 12

One I spelt wrong, one I mis-clicked :oops:

One of the words I only saw for the first time recently, another only really turns up in army memoirs!
