Talk:American and British English spelling differences

Sorry cannot help myself. So many more pages should be marked like this. World wide pages are dual language almost by default

Unused spelling for British speakers.

 * British once might have said milliard where USA still say billion. Britons would have said billiard, USA would have said quadrillion. Brits would have said trilliard, USA would have said septillion, this list goes on. Go to Long and Short Scale!
 * Britons would have said olde, personne, gramme, sonne, and that's all.

Mixed use of italics in the map caption
I've never been on this page before, but the caption was very hard to read even as a native speaker. This was changed and I'm considering undoing it if no one is opposed. I don't understand why we would mix italics and non-italics, especially when it causes a forward slash to look almost identical to an italicized lowercase L. lukini  (talk &#124; contribs) 16:20, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Unsourced claim
The "Hard and soft C" section claims that the one word where the letter C is pronounced /k/ before the vowels "e, i, y" is the word "sceptic" in British spelling, but I can think of "soccer" in both spellings which defies such claim. Terbofast (talk) 17:31, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * It says "One word", without any "the". The article thus is not making the claim that this is the only word where the letter C is pronounced /k/ before E I or Y.--Urszag (talk) 17:46, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
