Arthitis: Common Misguided Spellings for Joint Pain

Have you ever tried to look up a word in the dictionary without knowing how to spell it? I have, and it can be frustrating. Take arthitis, (I mean arthritis) for example. To me, that first “r” causes the second one to vanish altogether.

A commonality among medical issues is that the spelling of the ailment is every bit as important as treatment and diagnosis.

MS Word and Word Perfect are computer applications designed to deter this ongoing problem. But even here I’ve tried to spell words like arthitis on occasion and found myself severely wanting for better grammar.

Most of the time, confusion regarding the misspelling of words can be resolved by utilizing the Google search engine. While Google won’t help me much with grammar, it will at least send me in the right direction as it relates to spelling arthitis as arthritis.

It’s relatively simple, first type in the word arthitis.

Look to the top of the screen and you will see the correct spelling.

A link to the search-engine page where the correct spelling is expounded also is provided by Google.

Should I still be unclear as to arthitis spellings I can look through the search results and find numerous descriptions with the correct spelling of the word. My thinking should be made right in regards to right spelling of arthritis after reading the strings at this site.

Too often, misspellings of a particular word come in volumes. Arthitis is not the only way to misspell arthritis.

Here are the results of my research:

  1. athritis (5%)
  2. arthiritis (10%)
  3. arthristis (6%)
  4. arthritus (21%)
  5. arthrits (3%)

The percentages which follow the number indicate how common the misspelling of arthritis is in general. It was a real eye opener for me to see that only 8% of the people misspell arthritis as arthitis, while 21% spell arthritis as arthritus.

Arthritis must be misspelled more than the norm. If these people are utilizing word processors or search engines to spell this word, they are not using them correctly.

Worry about spelling is a nonfactor when arthritic pain lifts its ugly head. At the very least, my hope is that discovering right words to express yourself has become easier after reading this article. Search engines often are sources of information beyond that of word processors.
