The British way of spelling color. Americans spell it "color" which is the better way to spell it. It's shorter and easier.
American dude: Why the hell did u spell color with an extra u?
British dude: because spelling colour without the u is absolutely absurd and---
American dude: you've gotta be shittin me!
British dude: its unproper to use colour without---
American dude: Just shut up. No one gives a fuck.
Candians, Australians, Singaporians, Irishmen, Malaysians, Kiwis, Brits, Scots, Welshmen, Africans, and the people of every other English speaking country besides Philippines and America spell colour like "colour."
You stupid fucking yanks who can't comprehend silent letters and like to butcher the language, call it "color," and then tell the rest of the world we spell it wrong.
No, YOU spell it wrong. In new English, the first spelling of the word was colOUR. Get with the programme before your country burns to the cinders in WWIII, so maybe some people will like you and have your back.
The entire world: "My favourite colour is orange!"
Stupid bloody yank: "OMG i thenk he meanz to say his fav color omg he's obv british wow ur so dumb learn 2 speak english cus ur not from lyk england or anything lol!!!!!!111!one"
The _original_ and proper way of spelling colour. The Americans only spell it because they're incapable of understanding silent letters or how 'ph' sounds like 'f'
it's how everyone on the planet spells the word "color" except us Yanks, thanks to the spelling reforms of NoahWebster.
1. I was watching TV in my hotel room late at night in Niagara Falls, Canada. I could get American and Canadian TV signals there because I was at the border. There was an ad for Clairol with some lovely chicks showcasing their hair. Next to a lovely babe with long red hair was the logo: it said "Clairol Colour Treatment". I was watching an ad on Canadian TV.
2. At Oakes Parks in the Niagara area I was having a nice discussion with a Canuck lady. She said that I must be an American because I said "out" as opposed to "ewt". I said that yes I'm a Yank and that I spell "colour" with 5 letters, not 6.
3. Cyndi Lauper had a hit in 1986 with "True Colors". In 1998 Phil Collins released his version of it, respelling it as "True Colours" beings that he is British.
4. The TA for one of my college classes is a Canadian. He says that American spelling for words like "catalogue" becoming "catalog" and dropping the "u" in "colour" to make "color" is a sign of laziness. Hey, it eliminates excess baggage. It's called "simplifying". That's the American way, fella!
5. Eeeeeeeeeyeww! What's your favorite color baby? ... LIVING COLOUR.
Colour: One's perception of hue, lightness/brightness and saturation.
Note: This is the British and Canadian way of spelling colour, therefore, the correct way. I realize that American's think that they invented the English language (along with everything else)but they did not. The Brits or ENGLISH invented the language (where do you think the name came from?). Why do American's spell it color? Years ago when the first American dictionary was written, the person writing it was a horrible speller.
There are so many different pronounciations or accents in the United States, cul-er, call-or, cull-lur, cul-our, cal-or, etc.
I'm surprised they can spell anything correctly, because they seem to have difficulty with phonetics.
I love my new colouring book and crayons! Do you want to colour with me?
