This is a big peeve of mine..most Americans spell colour without the u (color) I find the u to be more correct.

I constantly get points off my work in school because of the u and misspelling it


I spell Colour with a u, do you?

I spell it color. :nod:

color is the way for me

I spell it color.

I spell it colour, unless I type quickly and it comes out as color instead lol.

color, color, color and thats it

colour im from new zealand

I spell it Color

Kiger, come to Britain! We get marked down for forgetting the 'u'. (Not that I do... I'm just great.) :D

Both! I never can remember, having lived in both the UK and America. It annoys my teachers so much. That, and not being able to draw the £ sign...

Being taught to spell it "color" since I was small, color.

Apparently, Colour is the correct way, but I don't know about anyone else, I say it color, and spell it color. Say 'you' and then transfer that sound into color... doesn't sound right. But that's just me.

I use both. >_>

In fourms and non-graded assignments, use the U, in graded work, I don't.

:S

I use both becuase I get confused on which one i should used.
i solve the problem with a game of "eenie meenie minie moe"

The spelling of it is mostly determined by where you live than rather than how you think it should be spelled. In the United States, it's spelled color because lexicographer (dictionary author) Noah Webster was very patriotic and "Americanized" many British English words, such as color. However, in Britain and most Commonwealth countries it is spelled colour.

I'm more used to 'color'. They say that the Euopeans spell it 'colour', but, I don't know. I say 'color', I was brought up spelling it that way... :shifty:

I spell it colour.

I spell it colour...
I'm Hungarian so I learn English in a more British way...So I spell it colour

I'm British so i spell it colour. I'd preffer it to be spelt color in british english, it makes more sense as that's how it sounds, but i don't because it's wrong.
