Incorrect spelling

amatuer

Incorrect spelling, explanation: amatuer is incorrect spelling because the original word is French and spelled amateur. The core word, amare (to love) is Latin. English spelling remained the same as French when the word was adapted to the language. This is why amateur is the correct spelling.


Correct spelling

amateur

Correct spelling, explanation: the correct form amateur originates in Latin amareto love. The Latin suffix -or in amator (lover) was replaced with -teur in French. English amateur derives from French and therefore it is correct to spell the word with -teur, not -tuer (so amatuer is the wrong form).
