A silent "p" has probably made "pneumonia" the most misspelled word in the US, according to data released recently by search engine Google.

搜索引擎谷歌最近發佈的數據顯示，pneumonia（肺炎）是美國人最常拼錯的單詞，原因可能是不發音的p。

Google released a comprehensive list of each state's most misspelled words.

谷歌發佈了一份有關每個州最容易拼錯的單詞的綜合性列表。

"Pneumonia" appears to be the hardest word for people to spell in Alabama, Illinois, Maine, Michigan and Washington.

對於阿拉巴馬、伊利諾伊、緬因、密歇根和華盛頓州的人們來說，pneumonia似乎是最難拼寫的單詞。

"Beautiful" is the hardest word in California, Kentucky, Minnesota, New York and Ohio while in Arizona, Colorado and Wisconsin, people have trouble with "tomorrow".

而在加利福尼亞、肯塔基、明尼蘇達、紐約和俄亥俄州，beautiful是最難的單詞，亞利桑那、科羅拉多和威斯康辛州的人們則在tomorrow的拼寫上存在問題。

Unsurprisingly, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, a word Popularized by the 1964 film "Mary Poppins," also appears on the list.

不出意料的是，supercalifragilisticexpialidocious（難以置信的）這個由1964年的電影《歡樂滿人間》推廣的單詞，也出現在了該列表當中。

However, one may have difficulty in explaining why people in Hawaii struggle with "people" and South Dakota can't spell "college" correctly.

不過，至於爲什麼夏威夷人民不太會拼people、南達科他州人民拼不對college，可能就很難解釋了。
