I'm honOURed to have this colOURful humOURous conversation.Steve wrote: Razzball - Where Spelling Matters. So in New Zealand, do you use a spell-chequer? And now that we're on the subject, let's get to this whole "Grey" vs. "Gray" thing. Quote: Grey became the established British spelling in the 20th century, pace Dr. Johnson and others,[104] and is but a minor variant in American English, according to dictionaries. Canadians tend to prefer grey. Non-cognate greyhound is never grayhound. Both Grey and Gray are found in proper names everywhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences ;)
