The word that trips me up - but only phonetically - is 'statistics'. I have to stop, think about it, and then say it very slowly and carefully. (I usually leave it as 'statics'.)
I enjoy words...

Oddley enough, license, necessary, and definately/ultimately all give me problems. Have to think about them and usually respell them. To pronounce, "library" gives me a moment. It's the "brar" part. ALso, although it was on our list of difficult words, and I did know how to spell it at one time "diarrhea" always gives me trouble.(when discussing small children that, barf, and snot, come up in conversation a lot :-) )

My all time favourite word to spell is phlegm...because it spells nothing like it sounds. I have seen MANY people spell it flem. I really enjoyed teaching that one to my kids. :)
