Good: sequel
Bad: Sequal
I will see if this will help me remember this word. A sequel in a book is a book that follows the plot line of a previous book. Most likely they will have the same characters. Note that sEquEl has 2 Es. The first e for the first book and the second e for the following book. We’ll see if that helps us remember this word.
If you have an alternative or more successful way to remember how to this word correctly, please feel free to share it.
