Spelling facts worth knowing
English spelling is influenced by several languages (including Latin, French, and German), which is why similar sounds can be spelled in different ways (like “-tion,” “-sion,” and “-cian”). Regional differences also matter—some words have accepted variants in American and British English.
Tips to improve faster
