Celphone, Celfone, Celfon, Mobile Fone, Celular Phone

Another commonly misspelled words are celphone, celfon, cellfone, cellphone and celfone instead of cell phone; mobile fone instead of mobile phone; and celular phone and celullar phone instead of cellular phone. I don't why people misspell cell phone or cellular phone. Maybe because some are unaware of the correct spelling and thought that celphone, cellphone and celfone are correct. Or maybe because some are already used to text messaging and wrong spelling, that's why they are too lazy to double check their spelling or too lazy to correct it.

Anyway, if you are one of the few people who misspell the words cell phone, mobile phone, and cellular phone into celphone, celfone, celfon, cellphone, cellfone, mobile fone, celular phone, celular phone, then that's okay, as long as you are using it in an informal communication.

However, if you are engaged in a formal communication, then I recommend double checking your spelling. You don't want other people to laugh, or worst pity you, right? Especially when you misspelled the words mentioned above on your resumes or formal letters.

You should know that the correct spelling are cell phone, cellular phone, and mobile phone. Remember that celphone, celfon, cellfone, cellphone, celfone, mobile fone, celular phone, and celullar fone are all incorrect.
