Incorrect spelling

exellent

Incorrect spelling, explanation: because of the origin of the word, exellent is incorrect. It derives from Latin present participle excellere, containing two elements ex and cellere, not ellere. Then it occurs in Old French as excellence, where there is also the consonant c. Finally, the first known use of excellent was in Middle English and it has survived to this day. Therefore, exellent is spelled wrong.
