mine are license, disease, and alcohol
If I had to hand write these I would be screwed.

I always screw up the ”dn” combo. Why do we pronounce it “whensday” when it is spelled like we should say “wed ness day”?

I always try to spell "separate" as "seperate"
Tom or row, bro.
Not a “can’t” spell, but if I had a dollar for every time I typed “the” as “teh”, I could buy TikTok.
That's weird. Do you really hate tomatoes?
restaurant, Australia, soldier
With restaurant I always want to spell it something like resteraunt. With soldier I keep thinking there must be a g in there. I mean it's pronounced "sold-ger"

Honestly, I've always struggled with restaurant
That explains why I had to turn down your restraint invitation.
I always want to spell license as liscense for some reason. If my life was on the line I'd be dead.
OP said, "everyday words"... not technical, scientific or medical words that no one can spell.
I don't have issues spelling so much as with typing. At my peak, I could rip 50+ wpm. Very accurate typist, always knew when I mis-keyed something to where I could stop immediately, fix the error, and move on.
But one typing thing I have always had an issue with is hitting ";" instead of " ' " when typing words such as don't, can't, etc.
It's like hitting a typing wall. I'll be ripping along and I have to dead stop just to hit the correct one...every damn time. Most times I just plow through the word knowing that no matter what, I hit the wrong key and will have to go back and fix it at the end of the sentence.
Spelling though...I guess it's the benefit of having a teacher for a parent. Never really had any word that would cause me issues over time.

Yeah, I was winning spelling bees in kindergarten at country school. The 7th and 8th graders hated me.
