Spelling

I realize this might be a bit random, but I’ve noticed some words spelled incorrectly based around my wonderful American English. “Finalize” was spelled with an “s” for instance. Has anyone else come across this very minor issue? It’s by no means a nuisance, but it would be cool to have the spelling reflect my region.

That actually sounds like a typo

Unless you don’t have a spell checker, I recommend finding some spell-checker settings and setting them to the proper country.

This has to be the worst thing I’ve read on the internet for a while.

You do realise there are non-American English speakers on here, right? As an English member, I find it insulting you want me to change how I write to appease you (not to mention the fact American English is derived from English).

Please close and lock this thread, and have a word with yourself.

No need to get too aggressive. I think what he meant was that he thinks the spelling/language should reflect the region or language selected. Such as when games/websites/apps offer English (UK) and English (US) as language options.

Yes exactly. I have no beef with any regions; only want mine to be displayed correctly and hope that others have theirs correct as well!

Finalise is meant to be spelled with an ‘s’. It’s English.

you do realise that no one in Britain actual talks like that. If I was to stereotype Americans id get agro. Also I would hardly sit there and ridicule our democracy especially when yours is much to be desired. Also for the sake of history the Americans only got involved after Pearl harbour. It was the Russians who defeated the Nazis and it was us who stopped them from taking over the world. History you see.
