Choose the incorrectly spelled word.
A
reservoir
B
congratulations
C
fourtieth
D
feuding
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Forty is the correct spelling of the cardinal number used to indicate a quantity of something. “Fourty” is sometimes used instead of forty, but this is incorrect.

Detailed explanation-2: -44 in words is written as Forty Four. 44 represents the count or value. The article on Counting Numbers can give you an idea about count or counting.

Detailed explanation-3: -Forty (40) is the number that follows 39 and precedes 41. Though it’s related to the number “four” (4), the modern spelling of 40 is forty. The older form, fourty, is treated as a misspelling today. The modern spelling could reflect a historical pronunciation change.
