Hatred and ignorance such as yours has no place in this forum.

For spoken English, the differences are barely audible, so forge ahead and don't be too concerned with whether a word is spelled 'dwelled' or 'dwelt'. With written English, however, if you are unsure about the spelling, better to ask your teacher or look the word up in the dictionary and see what the experts say.

I spell it "colour", since I live in the English-speaking Caribbean (we only became independent from the British in 1962). However, "color" is correct as well, since it is American English. Nothing wrong with that.

In America, it is spelled color. In the UK and Ireland, it is spelled colour. Either way is correct...for the country you are in.

England and America are two countries separated by a common language.

You limeys better behave or we`ll make England our 51st state. If the queen ever got laid, maybe the old bag would smile more. You people are more "wussified" than the punks in france.

Okay, so we spell and speak American English. Don't you have anything better to do than to point out our differences? You're starting to bore me.
