Don't worry about it just happy to raise the profile of this underused word . Due to dyspraxia and the teaching regime fashionable when I was at school, my spelling is wobbly, but I don't tend to use words whose meanings I am unsure of ... this dates back to making the horrifying discovery that sensuous and sensual weren't interchangeable and that countless literature essays were therefore rather racier than I had intended!!!!!

... HI may well also be magnificent but regardless of his rank, munificent is very apt, in my opinion... I on the other hand am clearly Ebenezer Scrooge
