Human makes mistakes. 'Mistake' word has been indulge with us. Ergo it seems like we are called human not because we are because we make mistakes. We do very vary mistakes. There is a very common mistake which we all make and that is misspelling. Misspelling is not a little thing to ignore, it changes the meaning of a word and sentence.

Misspelling can create a huge misunderstanding, still, KG to PG, everyone does that but there are few misspelling which are right spellings now.
The biggest example of misspelling is Google, accidental misspelling of googol. Googol is the large number 10100; that is, the digit 1 followed by 100 zeroes. Google was a misspelling and today it is the answer of all the questions.

These were the major misspellings but there's also many misspelling which are right spellings now :
Referer – common misspelling of the word referrer. It is so common, in
fact, that it made it into the official specification of HTTP – the
communication protocol of the World Wide Web – and has, therefore,
become the standard industry spelling when discussing HTTP referers.
Ovaltine, a popular bedtime drink in the UK and Australia, came about because someone misspelled the original name Ovomaltine on the trademark documentation.
Sequim – "In 1879 the first post office was built and named 'Seguin' for the
surrounding area. In 1907, due to a Postal Official's error in
reading an official report, the post office was titled 'Seguim' for
approximately a month. With the next report, the Official read the
letter 'g' as a 'q' and the post office here became known as 'Sequim.'
The name change apparently did not worry the residents enough to
protest. It has been known as Sequim ever since."
Zenith – Arabic zamt was misread; in Latin letters, at the time, the letter i was never dotted, so "m" looked like "ni".

Thompson, but the name was misspelled on a US Post Office map as "Arab,"
and the misspelled name stuck.
These misspellings are epic. This small mistake is not ignorable of course but those mistakes which have been made, convey a message that If you have zeal, courage and confidence and if you have done something extra ordinary than your small mistakes can be ignored. Misspelling changes the meaning of a word or sentence but not our life's, and as we all know, we called human cause we make mistakes.
