However, the root of these words is another Latin form, which is cedere and could be translated as to go away. Necessary appeared in the English language in late Middle English.

Incorrect spelling, explanation: necessary is probably one of the most commonly misspelled words in English. What causes confusion is the amount of the -c and -s letters. In the correct version, there is one -c letter and a double -s letter. However, many users of English mix that and they spell necessary as nessacary, which is absolutely unacceptable.
