Incorrect spelling

verticle

Incorrect spelling, explanation: two common adjective endings are -al and -le and as they are quite similar to each other, many English users mix them, which results in various spelling mistakes. Such a thing happens with the word vertical, which is often misspelled as verticle. It is wrong, though, so make sure you do not use it.
