One of these words is spelled incorrectly. Which one is it?
Answer & explanation
Answer: B) Privelege
" Privelege " is the incorrectly spelled word. The correct spelling is "Privilege" (P-R-I-V-I-L-E-G-E). Common errors include misplacing or omitting the ' i ' — " Privelege " has the ' i ' and 'e' transposed. The other words are correctly spelled: "Connoisseur" = an expert judge (C-O-N-N-O-I-S-S-E-U-R); "Surveillance" = close observation (S-U-R-V-E-I-L-L-A-N-C-E); "Endeavour" = an attempt to achieve a goal (British spelling with 'u').
