We know that the word stationary is spelled either with an "ary" or "ery" depending on how you intend to use the word. Vanna White gave this useful hint:
Stationary = something that is immobile
Stationery = paper products used in writing and sending personalized mail
Vanna suggested thinking of it this way...
When wanting to remember how to spell stationery in regards to paper products, remember the "e" standing for envelope! What a great way to remember the difference in spelling!
