DEFINITELY REDUX….
When we misspell this word, the spell-check usually steers us wrong, thinking we want to defy the authority of convention.
Defiantly which your word processors suggest is how you act when you defy
convention and authority.

DEVELOP
Yes, Lop off the E that you want to put at the end... There isn’t one.

Cantaloupe
