Affect/effect

This is a difficult one for many.
Something affected you.  You are affected.
Something had an effect.  You feel the effect.

Oh, and orientated is not a word.  It's oriented.  I ran across this in the design world all the time.

Up here, it's a spicket or spigot, and wheelbarrel is what it's usually called, although I've seen it the other way, too.

Down here, almost everybody pronounces spigot as spicket, and I'm sure there are lots of places where wheelbarrow is pronounced wheelbarrel, but that doesn't change the fact that there is no such thing as a spicket or a wheelbarrel (well, except for maybe the wheelbarrel that Magicman describes :D).

Another one that bugs me: Irregardless is not a word. Irrespective and regardless are.

The question is whether the wether can stand the weather or whether the wether will wither or not.

Dodgy,

I have never seed a spicket on a wheelbarrel.  Must be a Mississippi sort of thing, South Mississippi anyway.

Norm,

A few years back the local paper ran an article on a new subdivision that was being developed. The article mentioned the equipment that was building the roads -- an excavator and a "grater". OK, thinks I, probably just a typo the proof-reader missed. Turn the page and there is a photo, complete with caption, of the "grater" at work.
