Do you rely heavily on spellcheck? I couldn't live without it. I used to think I was a pretty decent speller until I started writing for a living. I will straight up mangle some words. "Diarrhea", for example. I cannot tell you how many ways I've tried to spell that stupid word.

I spell it so wrong, that spellcheck is usually like, "IDK, bro. You're on your own..."

Why do I have to write the word "diarrhea" so often? Who knows. It may have something to do with the fact that I host a filthy comedy morning show on the radio. That word is far too common in our daily convo.

But, whatever. I know I'm not the only one who has trouble sounding-it-out. According to Google Trends, Texans struggle to spell one word more than any other. Can you guess what it might be? I'll give you a second to think about it...

Think you've got it?

Well, here you go. The number one most misspelled word by Texans is the word "confident." Texans often spell it with an "a-n-t" at the end instead of an "e-n-t."

Grammarly says that Texans also struggle to spell the word "similar." We like to add a "u" in there, and spell it "simular."

Interesting.
