He held a plaque that the winning cabin was to recievereceive, a symbol of their hard-fought victories. Although the tournament had ended, each of the players havehas lingered near the lake, reluctant to break the spell.

  • → mistake, then its correction

The traps in this round

  • rythm →rhythm

    “Rhythm” has an h after the r, and another after the t.

  • english →English

    Names of languages take a capital letter.

  • childrens' →children's

    “Children” is already plural: add an apostrophe then an s.

  • recieve →receive

    After c, the e comes first: receive, deceive, ceiling.

  • have →has

    “Each” is singular, so the verb must be singular.

  • twenty one →twenty-one

    Compound numbers from twenty-one to ninety-nine always take a hyphen.

  • comittee →committee

    “Committee” doubles the m, the t and the e.

  • dependible →dependable

    “Dependable” ends in -able: “depend” stands alone.
