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.

I will never in my life be able to spell "guarantee" without the help of a spell checker.

In fact, sometimes I foul it up so bad the spell checker can't even guess what I mean.

That's why I want to spell "definitely" with an "a"... because I pronounce the last two syllables the same way I pronounce them in "unfortunately".
