M Lowrance"A
* acceptable - Several words made the list because of the suffix pronounced -êbl but sometimes spelled -ible, sometimes -able. Just remember to accept any table offered to you and you will spell this word OK.
* accidentally - It is no accident that the test for adverbs on -ly is whether they come from an adjective on -al ("accidental" in this case). If so, the -al has to be in the spelling. No publical, then publicly.
* accommodate - Remember, this word is large enough to accommodate both a double "c" AND a double "m".
* acquire - Try to acquire the knowledge that this word and the next began with the prefix ad- but the [d] converts to [c] before [q].
* acquit - See the previous discussion.
* a lot - Two words! Hopefully, you won't have to allot a lot of time to this problem.
* amateur - Amateurs need not be mature: this word ends on the French suffix -eur (the equivalent of English -er).
* apparent - A parent need not be apparent but "apparent" must pay the rent, so remember this word always has the rent.
* argument - Let's not argue about the loss of this verb's silent [e] before the suffix -ment.
* atheist - Lord help you remember that this word comprises the prefix a- "not" + the "god" (also in the-ology) + -ist "one who believes."
B
* believe - You must believe that [i] usually comes before [e] except after [c] or when it is pronounced like "a" as "neighbor" and "weigh" or "e" as in "their" and "heir." Also take a look at "foreign" below. (The "i-before-e" rule has more exceptions than words it applies to.)
* bellwether - Often misspelled "bellweather." A wether is a gelded ram, chosen to lead the herd (thus his bell) due to the greater likelihood that he will remain at all times ahead of the ewes.
C
* calendar - This word has an [e] between two [a]s. The last vowel is [a].
* category - This word is not in a category with "catastrophe" even if it sounds like it: the middle letter is [e].
* cemetery - Don't let this one bury you: it ends on - -
