YAY! After a brief hiatus the top 100 is back!
Ok, so maybe I'm using the term 'brief' a little loosely.
I prefer cotton boxers myself...
Without further segways, this Friday's showcase of the top 100 misspelled words in the English language!
AMATEUR
Amateurs need not be mature: this word ends on the French suffix -eur (the equivalent of English -er).
amature
Do you have ANY idea just how difficult it was to find a PG rated website for this word?
In fact, searching on the misspellings in Google didn't register that they were actually errors, as each variation often brought back over 10,000 pages.

amature
It was definitley great to see the expressions on my co-workers faces though as they walked past my screen...
"Hey! What the heck are you..."
"It's for work"
"Oh... really?" (you can imagine this was said with heavily raised eyebrows).
"Yes, I'm posting on the Top 100 misspelled words in the English language, and 'amateur' is right up there"
"I'll tell you something else that is right up there..."
"...not. another. word."
