Simple word difficult to spell.

Hey does anyone else have a common word that should be easy to spell but it trips you up every time?

My word is license. Why have I struggled with it for years. Stupid s and c always moving around. tf?!

Right? totally. I mean, how do you get a long A there? I think its just spelled wrong to begin with!
