Here’s a list of the top ten most often misspelled words. Pay attention though, because these are words that spellcheck can miss based on the context in which we use the word, or because a few of the words are homophones (words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings) and we use them incorrectly in the sentence.
- Their
- Too
- There
- They
- Then
- Until
- Our
- Ask
- Off
- Through

I would add the word “your” to the list. Too many times I see “you’re” spelled as “your”.
That’s a good one Jeffpitcher:)
I really don’t think this is a list of misspelled words as much as it is a list of incorrectly used words. A misspelled word would be more like “separate” which is commonly misspelled “seperate”. Surely everyone can spell to and too, they just apply the wrong word quite often.

Loser
Tongue
