Select the correctly spelt word.

Correctly spelled word: mischievous

Why the others are incorrect:

• "mischiefous" — inserts an extra "o" and uses "ief" instead of the correct "iev" sequence.

• "mischevious" — swaps the "i" and "e"; the correct order is "iev".

• "mischeivous" — misorders the vowels and places them incorrectly in the middle of the word.

Helpful tip and pronunciation:

• Mnemonic: Think of the word "mischief" but replace the final "f" with "vous" to get the adjective form: mischievous

• Pronunciation guide: roughly "MIS-chuh-vuhs", but keep the spelling with the "iev" sequence.
