I’m not a linguist, so I might be wrong, but I believe that there were not formal spelling rules yet when our nations split. Back in the day, people just spelled things in whatever way looked best. Once spelling became more formalized, the Brits stuck “u”s all over the place and the Americans didn’t.

a lot of countries only speak English because you conquered them and forced it onto them

I mean, thanks for spoiling my history lessons ig. I mean, not like I was looking forward to them or anything smh.

I totally understand you about the "ou" thing. But as far as Britain giving us the language, did you read what I said about cave men?

You should know your own history. Particularly your own nation’s bloody history of conquest and oppression. Not that I’m judging. American history is pretty ugly too.

DID ANYONE SEE WHAY I SAID ABOUT CAVEMEN?

Uh.. well, last time I checked, my homeschooling books haven't covered that yet. In fact, I don't think it's appropriate for me to learn about that at my age.

If you’re old enough to be posting on here, you’re old enough to know the basics, if not the fine details.

Uh, actually you don't know my current situation. It's very innapropriate for me to learn about that sort of stuff. Especially because I know it'll be gory.

And, if you didn't know, fandom is a 13+. British schools - especially when homeschooled - are completely different to american ones.

Bro this isn't politics can you calm tf down, like british did actually give the language and i live in the f**king usa so i have a right to say this. and this isnt abt cavemen lmao, its about the correct title of the book

Lmao fr, before you start attacking the british school system, research about it first
