Although many students believe that they can depend on spell-checking programs to avoid spelling problems, spell-checking programs are far from perfect and often miss spelling errors. Thus, in this chapter, you will review the reasons for problems with English spelling and the importance of correct spelling in the presentation of written work. After an explanation of the frequent mismatches between sound and spelling, the text goes on to review, clearly and succinctly, the basic rules of English spelling. You will learn, and have the opportunity to practice, the application of these rules in many exercises.
