Where in the world do they get this definately from?

I have trouble with that one myself. I have to remind myself that "definitely" contains the word "finite", and spell it that way.

In my case, I think I want to put an "a" in place of the second "i", because that's how I pronounce it when I speak... as if there was an "a" there.

I took me awhile to figure out how to spell "unfortunately."
Females can just look things like that up in a dictionary, but guys don't ask directions, so I had to keep writing it until I got it right.

I think the "loose/definately" misspellings are sincere rather than intentional.
