Other than living in Toronto(as I mentioned before on this thread) for 4+1 years, I also lived in Portugal 5+12 years in a little village called "Olival" (24 Km from Fatima, and 30 Km from Leiria). The + in the years are for the interruption of moving back & forth from Portugal to Canada.

Heh does this mean you can spell and say "Aluminium" correctly, and pronounce "Route" the right way?

How about "colour"? :P

LOL.I suppose so. But still, it's strange, why Americans spell "colour" like "color"? >.< I don't understand.

[gravitation]

yeah but i think the american spelling of grey as gray is good...but what really baffles me is the spelling of the word "one" if a foreign person was learning english they would get confused lol....its spell as if it would be pronounced o-ne but it infact is pronounced like won lol sorry if i didnt make anysense @_@ ^___^

All languages are based on arbitrary rules, to say that one way to spell a word is incorrect is only based on the current consensus. Soon, such taboo words as "ain't" will be offically accpeted into english grammer, if it hasn't been already, and just as many other words will die out and never be used again, except only by etymologists.
