It depends whether you're English or American. Spelt is English.

Spelt is also a grain, a variant of wheat.

[-] MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, one of the earliest cultivars

Spelt is not proper English.

Edit: I retract Collins as a trustworthy source.

[-] MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Of course it is!

Smelled or smelt?

He who smelt it delt it.

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Smelt is a family of fishes.

[-] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Isn't spelt, like an ocean minnow?

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That’s the grain with the P. It’s a family of fish, smelt.
