I went to a British school and I hate it when I get corrected for
homologous, colour, neighbourhood, etc.... Wendy Playle wrote: Certainly! On a partly connected thread (groan) there are considerable differences in the spelling, use and syntax between us UK English and our US and AU friends, which can complicate issues enormously. I would not be likely to mention differences in spelling on such an international group for fear of simply being ignorant of the spelling being correct for a different country. -- Dr. Quilter Ambassador of Extraordinary Aliens http://community.webshots.com/user/mvignali (take the dog out before replying) |
