finger muscle memory
There are certain words that, when typing them, I always misspell them. It's not like I forget the ordering of the letters, but that I add extra letters to the end of the word.
Examples:
Bandwidth usually ends up becoming bandwidthy.
Erin ends up becoming Ering.
Why? I feel like it has to do with the last few letters at the end of the word. These letters remind me of other words which contain a similar pattern of letters towards the end (but not at the end) of the word. I then add the end of the other words instead of stopping at the end. In bandwidth, the -th might remind me of wealthy/healthy. The -in at the end of Erin could remind me of all those words that end in -ing. I say "might" and "could" because I'm not sure that this is what's going on. It's just a guess. My brain just gets carried away with the typing...
