A Colour Question!
(Okay maybe it's a spelling question...)
^_^ Which do you prefer? Colour or color? I prefer colour. It's way better than color. I don't know why....but in America, which is where I live, we spell it "color.(Except for ME!) It sucks. My teacher gave me a 94 instead of 100 because "I spelled 'color' wrong." Wow. :/
COLOUR ROCKS! ^_______^
All life begins with a Nu and ends with a Nu.
I was taught to spell it 'color' and I've stuck with it. The 'u' just seems unnecessary...
Actually show her a dictionary which it should say "colour" also. Seriously, you do not deserve to lose a point because she does not recognize other forms of spelling that vary from the Americanized one. I mean even my teachers did not force us to spell the Canadian/British way, we spelt as we felt like it.
To be honest colour > color
The first time I used the [color] tag, I typed: [colour] ^_^;
You left too soon, Dixie.
<rubah> I used to spell british things
<rubah> then I took a keyboarding class
<Bert> you would
<rubah> and got tired of countings off for misspellings
<rubah> so I cured that silly habit quickly
Spelling being so standardized as it is is rather silly though, I mean they used to make up spellings all the time!
But there's nou use in typing coulour as that means you should add an extra u tou every o you type. Hout doug, mang.
I'm so used to not putting a 'u' in it, that I don't know if I ever will...
The one that surprised me most is "mould" I always splet it "mold" but my Biology teacher spells the Britsh way so I learned of it. The only words I tend not to spell in the British way is centre, I usually spell it center.
'colour' is a much more colorful way of spelling it.
colour. duh. Although I use both...
