Shelley Durocher, Sorry, second option.

Iancompat, Surely they can, and did. It was the only correct answer listed. If you look more carefully, you'll see that the first option misspelled the "mili-" part of the word, which should be "milli-" The only correct option of the 2 given was the U.S. spelling, which does not make it wrong, just different.

Denise Bruce, But the one ending in "-tres" was spelled wrong, with only one "l" in "mili". That's wrong everywhere. The only correct option of the 2 choices was the U.S. spelling, which does not make it wrong, just different.

patricia crosland, Location based variants in spelling are not correct or incorrect, just different.

Patricia Cairns, It didn't have that as an option. Look carefully. There is only 1 "l" in "mili". That is wrong anywhere. Of the 2 option, the only correct option was milliliters, the U.S. spelling, which does not make it wrong, just different.

Gail Cusack, Of the two choices, only milliliters was correct. I use the "-re" ending here in Canada as well, but that was not an option. U.S. spelling is not incorrect, it is just different.

Keith Williams, No, it's not. The U.S. has never declared an official language. I also spell it with the "-re" ending, but that was not an option. The other option was "mililitres", without the double "ll". That is not correct anywhere. So of the two choices listed, milliliters was the only correct choice. The differences in spelling in various places are not correct or incorrect, just different.

12/12 but that's only because I ticked the American spelling!! In NZ it is litre, immunise, fantasise, etc

Went with the US spelling. Should be Englush.

12/12 Good English this time.

12 / 12. All quite straightforward except for the use of American spellings!

The rest of the world doesn't use Z as American's do

If the quiz is based on American spelling, it should say so.
