Zyzzyva. The last word in most dictionaries, a zyzzyva is an American weevil that often is destructive to plants.
The correct spelling of the others is:
Cincinnati
Accommodate
Nonpareil (so much for i before e, right?)
Fuchsia
I was just telling someone the other day how I always misspell Cincinnati. Maybe it's a subconscious Western PA thing?
GOOD LUCK to Ellie!!
