Am I the only one questioning the spelling of “tyre“?
not everyone speaks ameican english
And it's probably India which has the most English speakers in the world (counting it as native, second or third language)
Is it just me or is this response the wrong response? I would have expected:
(that missing "r" in "ameican" inspires the use of the "improper" option here). It's American English that uses "tire", after all, and the rest of the Anglosphere that has "tyre".
Canadian English is also tire. We have a good mix of both sides
Today you learned a new aspect of the British English dialect. Congrats!
They'll be boggled by hiccough and gaol.
Deus Vult!
