What does 'COLOUR' mean in English? How should I spell it?

Answer 1

There is 2 ways to spell it. In the US, we spell it color. In England, they spell it colour. It is the description you give to an object in terms of how it looks. Color or colour (see spelling differences) is the perception of the frequency (or wavelength) of light, and can be compared to how pitch (or a musical note) is the perception of the frequency or wavelength of sound.

Answer 2

COLOUR - is simply the British spelling (and Canadian) of color. The meaning is the same for both spellings - I shall leave you to that search.

I think the "our" in certain words - was just to difficult for you YANKS - hence it was dropped in "favour" of the simpler spelling "or" ;)
