Re: Inspired by Secret 7 - British versus American spelling

[(Anonymous)]

Haha, thanks for the perspective. I personally find it annoying when my fellow Americans insist on using British spellings because it just ~feels more natural~ or go to the UK hoping/expecting to "lose their American accent" and come hope talking in a weird wannabe English accent. I don't want to come across that way.

But at the same time, it feels rude to use the American spelling when the person I'm e-mailing is using the British spelling. Or if I'm referring to a document with a title that uses British spelling, I feel like I should write the title as it's written, but that leads to a lot of inconsistency.

I can't speak for your friends, but some people just naturally pick up accents and speaking patterns of where they are. It's not some juvenile concept like ~wannabe English or something.

Naw, rude is snapping your fingers to get someone's attention (I don't know if it's the same way in the UK, but that's the only thing my American friends have done that's made me cringe); using American spelling is just what's expected. If you're really unsure about it, you could always ask. Citations and references and whatnot should be done with the original spelling, though.
