The Top Misspelled Word In California Is...

What word does the Golden State struggle the at spelling more than any other word? Thanks to a new report from Google, we now know the answer.

California's most misspelled word is: beautiful.

Why? Who knows. Maybe people in California are so used to the constant beautiful weather that we use the word ad nauseam and get complacent when texting our East Coast friends and family about it. Either way, we are still doing better than many other states.
