 Note that the printed output of \fBsmartctl\fP displays most numerical
 values in base 10 (decimal), but some values are displayed in base 16
-(hexidecimal).  To distinguish them, the base 16 values are always
+(hexadecimal).  To distinguish them, the base 16 values are always
 displayed with a leading \fB"0x"\fP, for example: "0xff". This man
 page follows the same convention.
