    If you are speaking or writing in ‘English’ then you must spell in ‘English’ otherwise you are speaking or teaching ‘American’. I refer of course to “colors vs Colours.” People learning English should be made aware of the two spellings as they would seem foolish writing Americanisms into job applications etc in England.

    “Dove vs Dived” being another case in point. Apart from that Laura you’re doing a fine job teaching me French. Merci.
