Sevice or service?

SEVICE leaves out the R after SE.
Why people write SEVICE
Some letters are barely said, or not said at all, in everyday speech (the N in government, the P in pumpkin), so they drop out when the word is written as it sounds.
Spell the word out loud the slow way, exaggerating every letter ("govern-ment", "pump-kin"), and the missing letter comes back.
How often SERVICE is misspelled
In the web pages Google counted for its trillion-word corpus (Peter Norvig's word counts), SEVICE appears 1 times for every 1,000 SERVICE, about once for every 1,000 correct uses.
