Mediterranean (and we have a city in Norwich named that which throws a lot of people off when putting in 911 calls!)
Preparatory (I always forget the second a!)
Accommodations (again, I always forget that second m!)
I have dyslexia so lots of words are hard to spell. There are a few that I know I spell wrongly but can never remember the right spelling.
The last word I got all tongue tied over was
Worsborough
A place in Yorkshire, mind you it did not help that in every old document I looked at it was spelt differently!
czechoslovakia!
smiles, bee
xoxoxoxoxoox

Hmmm, that's an interesting question. I've always had difficulty saying apparatus.
Ah, as I told Bev in the Hologram Center, the following are difficult:
Chocolate
Sandwhich
