Peter Duniho averred:
It is either a very common language artifact among English-speaking people, or you and I have an uncanny degree of similarity with respect to our mental quirks. I _consistently_ type "ration" instead of "ratio".

Perchance are you both touch typists, or otherwise fairly fast and automatic? (I know a guy who types about 40 wpm using three fingers.)

I often add a "g" to words that end in "in", I suspect because muscle memory has fused the "ing" suffix into a single motor act.

Perhaps the notion of a "-tion" suffix that has an attraction to such retention should be the focus of your attention for an explanation.
