To solve this spelling worksheet, we need to look at each row and identify the correctly spelled word from the four options (A, B, C, or D). Here is the step-by-step breakdown for each number:
1.
absence: The correct spelling ends in "-ence". Option D is correct.
2.
accidentally: This word has two 'c's and two 'l's. Option A is correct.
3.
beginning: When adding "-ing" to "begin," we double the 'n'. Option D is correct.
4.
believe: Remember the rule "i before e, except after c." Option D is correct.
5.
commitment: This word has two 'm's and two 't's. Option D is correct.
6.
consciousness: This is a tricky one! It ends in "-ousness". Option D is correct.
7.
diarrhea: This word comes from Greek and keeps the 'rr' and 'h'. Option D is correct.
8.
drunkenness: Add "-ness" to "drunken". It keeps both 'n's. Option D is correct.

entrepreneur: This French loanword is spelled exactly as it looks in Option D.
