Auger vs. augur
Auger always related to tools and engineering. Some augers are drill bits, others are used to bore holes in wood or ice, and others are used to unclog toilets. The word can also be a verb meaning to use an auger. Augur always relates to premonition. As a verb, it means (1) to predict or foretell or (2) to be an omen. As a noun, augur denotes something that is ominous or that serves as a bellwether.

Unsurprisingly, auger is often used in place of augur—for example:

But the fact the club was not even given a First Division licence would not auger well for its chances of overturning the decision at appeal. [Irish Times]

But anyone who glanced at the stat sheet saw another number that augered well for ODU. [The Virginian-Pilot]

The mistaken use of augur in place of auger is less common than the reverse error, perhaps because writers who use auger often have know-how when it comes to tools and engineering.

I don't think I've ever written augur, go know. Thank you, tiger.

 Thank you, Ella. I learned something too. Look what a pun can do!!
