address

Correct spelling, explanation: address can be either a noun or a verb. The word is borrowed from Anglo-French adrescer, adresser, but based on Latin ad- + directus. Address appeared in English around the XVI century as a noun. The current spelling with double d is probably inspired by the Latin ancestor. On this grounds, the correct spelling is address and not adress.
