The correct spelling is 'psychology' beginning with 'ps'. The 'p' is silent but must be written. This Greek-derived word uses 'psycho-' meaning 'mind' or 'soul'. Common errors omit the 'h' or misspell 'ch' as 'k'.

The correct spelling is 'questionnaire' with double 'n' after 'questio'. The French origin means it follows French spelling patterns. Common errors include single 'n' or adding extra letters like 'airre'.

The correct spelling is 'weird' with 'ei' not 'ie'. This word is an exception to the 'i before e except after c' rule. The 'ei' pattern is correct because the sound here isn't a long 'e' sound.

The correct spelling is 'bizarre' with double 'z' and single 'r'. Many people incorrectly double the 'r' instead. The word comes from French and retains its unusual spelling pattern with 'zz'.

Counting from A (1st), the 19th letter of the English alphabet is S. The sequence goes: A(1), B(2), C(3), D(4), E(5), F(6), G(7), H(8), I(9), J(10), K(11), L(12), M(13), N(14), O(15), P(16), Q(17), R(18), S(19).

The question 'The alphabet in the middle' is ambiguous and poorly phrased. With 26 letters, different interpretations exist: M(13) or N(14) are mathematically central, O(15) is exactly midway between 1 and 26, but the expected answer is 'None of the above'.

The tenth alphabet is J. Counting ten alphabets after J gives us T (K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T). Therefore, T is the correct answer.

The vowels in alphabetical order are A, E, I, O, U. With five vowels total, the middle (third) vowel is I, making it the correct answer.

Counting 11 alphabets from the end (Z) backwards gives us P. Starting from Z: Z(1), Y(2), X(3), W(4), V(5), U(6), T(7), S(8), R(9), Q(10), P(11).

The correct spelling is 'Distortion', meaning the action of giving a misleading account or changing the shape of something. 'Distirtion' and 'Distorsion' are incorrect phonetic spellings.
