Incorrect spelling, explanation: as the word conjure has a French origin, it looks French and is similar to the French word bonjour. As a result, many English speakers make a mistake and spell the word as conjour, which often results in a wrong pronunciation, too. The only correct spelling of the word is conjure and its pronunciation is /ˈkʌn.dʒər/.

Correct spelling, explanation: the word conjure has its roots in the Latin words con and jurare. The former one meant together while the latter one meant to swear. When the two words joined, the form conjurare appeared and its meaning was to conspire by oath. Later the word entered Old French and finally, in Middle English, conjure appeared in English, too.
