  • So, all of the English speaking world spelled one way. You changed some spellings and now you want the rest of the English speaking world to change to your way?

  • Can Americans just switch their spelling back to standard English, please? Why do we have to have two systems of spelling just because the U.S. wanted to be different?

  • What gives you hope?

    Jump
