Spelling Tip – this is a tricky word to learn to spell as it is one of the unusual words - one of the few in the English language that has three vowels. It also has the reversed ‘re’ saying ‘er’ found in English spelling. Concentrate your efforts on learning the ‘oeu’ by saying “The ‘e’ has manoeuvred itself between the ‘o’ and ‘u’”.
man + oeu + v + re
