another one for 'definitely'. Hell, I even copy/pasted from Cyanea because I didn't want to mess with it. *sigh*
There are a couple others, but I'll be damned if I can think of them.

Bureaucracy and restaurant. Also, I've been spelling Caribbean as Carribean for years and I never knew I was wrong.  |

There are a few words that I can't spell for the life of me. Definitely (the 'e' always sneaks in, damn it), Caribbean is another. And quiet vs. quite, it always gives me a pause and I have to think for a minute or two.
Also, I can't pronounce motivation, instead of saying Mo(e)-tivation, I say Maa-tivation. It drove my roommate insane. But I have it fixed now. I hate when my foreignness comes out!

The name Michael, for me. For some reason it trips me up every single time, dangit. It was bad enough that I actually worked out long, nonsensical sentences in papers as a kid to avoid having to try and spell it. Luckily for me, I never met a person with the name that I could call a friend. Made talking about the art supply store difficult, though.

Particularly. I always spell it particulairly. Probably because when I pronounce it, I pronounce it with that second 'i'.

I can't spell smoking... I always add a "c" so it's smocking... which is also a word, but I don't remember what it means.

Definitely gives me problems. And I tend to add an "e" to the end of everything without meaning to...

"Unnecessarily" and "occasionally".
I think I've mostly got 'em down now though.
