English variants
Hey,

Just wanted to explain to you further. enwiki articles are typically written in one of several English variants, which often use differing vocabulary, grammar, and spelling. Articles are typically tagged at the top for which English variant they use, and The Last of Us (franchise) is tagged with Use American English, so the American spelling, grammar, and vocabulary should be used.

Hope this helps :) Sideswipe9th (talk) 00:17, 13 March 2023 (UTC)


 * "Improvise" is the correct spelling in American English. See https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/improvise DaveBeal (talk) 21:14, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
