-416 Ok, MORONS, it's "color," not "colour" amirite?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I don't really see what the point in this is. Color = US English spelling Colour = UK English spelling There is no right or wrong. (And, if there was, it would be colour, considered the English language came from the UK.)

theater and theatre too

Doesn't theater refer to the building and theatre refer to the actual plays and whatnot? That's what I was taught in my theatre class.

i looked them up, they are the same

Those are actually two seperate words. "Theater" refers to the buildings, like a movie theater. "Theatre" is the acting, like a theatre club.

Where I'm from there is only "theatre", and it refers to both cinemas and acting clubs.

British people spell everything wrong.

But wouldn't color be correct because Americans established the American language?

At first, I thought that said Mormons. I was wondering why this post was directed at them. Then I reread it and got it.

There are more people in the world who spell it "colour" than those who spell it "color". You lose.

So, by that logic, everyone who doesn't speak Chinese loses because Mandarin Chinese is most widely spoken. All hail China.

I think you mean "中国所有的冰雹."

Obviously they're both right, depending on where you are. I meant that if one had to e chosen as correct, "colour" would win by majority.

The thing is, when you're taught to write "colour" , it's incredibly difficult to change. It's like a habit. One is the European spelling, one is the American spelling. There is no right or wrong way.

I use colour, but what really bugs me is that all the autocorrects don't let you use both. Why can't they make it so that you don't get autocorrects or that damn red line underneath your word, just for spelling it in a different, yet equally acceptable, way?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

It will let you spell it "colour" and "favourite", etc., without the red line, if you use the British keyboard. Or you can get rid of the red line in settings.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Yes, but seeing as they both acceptable ways to spell it. There really isn't any reason why you can't use all the spellings. Especially if you are in a country that combines the two spellings.

I'm Canadian and we spell it with a "u". Obviously we know who the moron is here and it's not us maple-syrup-loving Eskimos.

I'm pretty sure most other countries spell it colour over color, favourite over favorite, etc.

I'm American, and I write "colour," "favourite," "realise," "aeroplane," "harbour," etc...
