Brian Reynolds, Because those countries also have their own versions of English.

Leapy Lee,
Both British and American spellings are correct. Your personal preference has nothing to do with correctness. SMH

Why do the Americans insist on calling it "British" English. The last time I checked English is the primary language spoken in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Don't they matter?

16/16. The whisky/whiskey question is nonsense. The product from Scotland is called whisky. The product from everywhere else in the world is called whiskey!

In the United Kingdom the spelling 'Whiskey' is used. It's used for Irish whiskey such as Bushmills distilled here in my home county of Antrim.

Whisky is only in Scotland, not all British countries.

Spelling Champ on both sides! Never studied their way of spelling I just figured it was the opposite of ours.

Super duper easy quiz for someone who has lived and studied with both spellings. I still prefer British spelling as being correct though.
