Actually, we Australians (and the English - who's language it happens to be) spell it the correct way. Its only those "deviants"* from the other side of the world who insist on spelling *English* words the non-English way.

*Deviant - someone who has deviated from the norm.

Linguists will tell you that American English is closer to that spoken and written by the British at the time of King George III than modern varieties spoken and written in the Commonwealth today. We're more conservative, so we've changed the language less than you blokes have... :-)

Thank you for the compliment!

When I was a child I always wanted to grow up to be a deviant. Now that I have Delux Ox's proclamation, I'm so happy I could die!

Perhaps, but its still called *English*, not *German* nor *American*.

One would then have to wonder why you linked an *American English* dictionary... :-P

I didn't - I think if you look back over the proceeding posts that you'll find that that was someone else
