Spelling Rules

A Course By May L

Course Avatar

Writing is a representation of the spoken word. The spoken word is not a representation of writing. Accents and pronunciation can change easily and quite quickly, whereas what is written in books and dictionaries remains “fixed” for years.

For various historical reasons, there is often little correspondence between spoken English (pronunciation) and written English (spelling). English spelling therefore often appears to be illogical.

This free course on spelling rules may help you to decode the mysteries of English spelling. But remember, even the best rules have their exceptions.

In this five-part collection of spelling rules, we will discuss adding -ing/-ed, -er/-est, -ly, -s, and the use of -ible or -able.
