      There is no such word as doctorial in the Oxford Dictionary which is the definitive source of proper English.

    😒I pride myself on my good spelling and grammar, but I only got 8 out of 10 correct. How humbling!

    Teaching spelling is not done anymore, so it’s not a surprise that the boomers are doing well, others not so much. I recently found out that my grandson in grade 3 has also not learned cursive writing. All my fellow boomers probably remember how much time we spent in practising our handwriting. But then again, the only time I write anymore is to sign my name🙄

    The truly sad thing is that spellcheck will catch and correct most of these misspellings, only people are too lazy to use it.

    C'mon, this was ridiculously easy (10/10). For a better challenge, try speaking the word and see if the viewer can spell it.
