I always remember “a rat” in the middle of “separate”.

Hey, that's great, I always have trouble remembering whether it's spelled with an a or an e. Now I'll always know! :)

I think it was in Dennis The Menace or some other cartoon when I was a kid back in the Stone Age, and it has served me well!

Not to draw the matter to too fine a point, but it appears to me that “par” is in the middle, and if thus remembered helps prevent spelling the word as “seperate.”
