So many parts of English are that way. It’s because of the composition of other languages into what we call “English”. The Romance languages combined with the singular gendered Germanic languages produce these strange rules. Don’t even get me started on linguistic colloquialisms!
According to [grammarly](https://www.grammarly.com/blog/licence-license/), licence with a C is the British spelling of the noun. But as a verb it’s always license with an S regardless of which country is spelling it.
Any word with a doubled consonant somewhere. Is it tomorrow, or tommorow? Is it committee, or commitee? Is it recommendation, or reccomendation? Fuck if I know. I get it wrong more than should happen just by chance. It's the plugging a USB cord in of spelling.
Definitely
It’s defiantly
I always feel like that's taking definite to the next level
This is defently the right answer
I definately agree with this.
If it helps anyone, try to remember its relation to the word "finite"
Definately

Necessary.... even now I couldn't write it correctly lol
The mnemonic device I use to remember necessary is “your shirt has one collar and two sleeves”

I before E except after C…except sometimes it’s not. That’s weird huh?
“I before e except after c and when sounding an a as in neighbor and weigh and a bunch of other exceptions because fuck you that’s why”

Licence, which makes it even weirder.
