 All storage within vdo is managed as 4KB blocks, but it can accept writes
 as small as 512 bytes. Processing a write that is smaller than 4K requires
 a read-modify-write operation that reads the relevant 4K block, copies the
-new data over the approriate sectors of the block, and then launches a
+new data over the appropriate sectors of the block, and then launches a
 write operation for the modified data block. The read and write stages of
 this operation are nearly identical to the normal read and write
 operations, and a single data_vio is used throughout this operation.
