Google has released Canada's most misspelled words

In today's world, autocorrect is your best friend.

But that doesn't mean Google won't remember every, single, time, you spelled pneumonia wrong.

Over the year, Google actually keeps data showing which words were misspelled most often.

The most misspelled words in Canada might surprise you.

Ontarians for instance, don’t know how to spell “colour,” while Albertans want to use the word “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” without actually knowing how to properly put it down on the page. At least, that’s according to a recent Google report.

Google Canada has collected information on the most misspelled words in the county by province, and have made a map outlining their findings.

Based on results related to “How to spell” in each region, Google found B.C. really wanted to learn how to spell “pneumonia” (probably all the rain?), meanwhile Nova Scotians wanted to spell “yacht” correctly.

Check out the most common misspelled words in each province below.
