I'm picking "Colonel" needs to be respelled to match how it's pronounced.

Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

I'd spell cache as cache so Australians know it's pronounced like "cash" not like "kaysch".

I'll accept that, only as long as Americans learn that route is pronounced "root", not "rout".

... I pronounce route as root. But I pronounce rerouted like rout. Huh.
