Ploughing Towards
Usually K proofreads my posts; she's a more rigid grammarian. Over time we've been uncovering the remnants of the few years I spent in a British school via my use and spelling of words. A quick lookup on dictionary.com shows both of us being right but I have a style guide from The Economist which devotes an entire section to words that are spelled differently across the Atlantic. Here are a few of our word differences:
| D vs K |
| granary |
grainery |
| towards |
toward |
| plough |
plow |
| traveller |
traveler |
Although it's not as though our disagreements on spelling are that vehement.
