Lifehack has a great article on how to improve your spelling skills. Check out some of the following neat spelling mnemonics (i.e. memory helps):
- A piece of pie.
- You hear with your ear.
- There is a place just like here.
- The inheritance is theirs because they are the heirs.
- Pull apart to separate.
- Definite has 2 i’s in it.
- Because: Big elephants can always understand small elephants.
- Cemetery has three e’s – “eee!” – like a scream.
- In no century is murder an innocent crime.
- Slaughter is laughter with an “s” at the beginning.
- Br! It’s February in New England.
- Stationery: Remember “e” for envelope or “er” for letter.
And if you have trouble spelling “mnemonic,” just remember: There is an “m-n-em” at the beginning of mnemonic!

Thanks, Tim - good one! Anybody else got any others?
