Current Events > For the longest time I didn't know how to spell "millennium".

(+) Yeah! (+)

I spelled it with one "n".

And for a guy who writes guides, some of which reference the Millennium Falcon, and some of which reference a building called Millennium Tower, this is embarrassing.

Simple way to remember is to think of it was Willennium but with an M instead of a W

Microsoft Word has spellcheck...

lol I did the same thing, for *years* I was like "why the hell does it say it's wrong, I have two L's there"

I don't write in Microsoft Word. I write on the GameFAQs online editor. And before that I wrote in Notepad.

Just spell it like you pronounce it. With 2 l's and 2 n's.

English do be weird like that.

I still have to double check every time I write "customer". Why tf is it written the opposite of how it's pronounced?

They tried to get me at the regional spelling bee with that one. My parents thought I had spelled it wrong too but nope. I ended up losing on "paucity" though when I spelled it with an s instead of a c. Or the other way around. I still don't know.

Easy way to remember how to spell it is that its basically the word Illennium with an M at the beginning.
