Not sure how to spell a word? Hesitate no longer.

Fearful or Fearsome?

Your choice!

Fearful

Exemple : ‘’I am fearful that he is going to miss the flight!’’

The words "fearful" and "fearsome" are often used incorrectly. "Fearful" means to be frightened or scared about something.

Fearsome

Exemple : ‘’The President has a very fearsome reputation.’’

"Fearsome" is used to mean something capable of causing fear and therefore something which is fearsome causes us to be fearful.
