Nah man. When your tum roils and you know you need a toilet yesterday, but within 5 minutes. That but being coy about it

I always knew the English suffered from oral ~~diarrhea~~ diarrhoea

[-] azvasKvklenko@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

That’s the English language in a nutshell from my perspective as non-native

[-] penquin@lemm.ee 6 points 4 months ago

Dire situation hoe yeah, mate

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

That's the British English spelling.

[-] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Isn't that whats is meant by "English spelling"? Otherwise it'd be the American spelling no?

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

No, because American isn't a language, English is. It's then further separated into dialects, such as American English and British English. Just saying "English" makes it sound like you're not just talking about dialects, which this person is.

[-] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Didn't say it was language. Thought the "spelling" was implied since the op is about spelling.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I've never seen it referred to this way before. I've always seen it called the "British" or "British English" spelling of something.

[-] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

I not a english major or anything. That might be correct. Iv just heard or seen it called the English spelling versus the American spelling. And yea I see some room for confusion there.
