Is the word colour spelled color or colour?

Filed Under mercialleasing.com |

  • along with other words like (favour, flavour,) ppl at school spell it like color and im the only one that does it with a U..i kinda do it out of habit..thats just how i spell it. which one is right?


  • Canada - colour (British/English way?)
    American - color


  • Color is used US English
    Colour is spelt in UK English.


  • Both r correct 1 is british english which is colour and 2nd is american english they write it as color.


  • In the US it's color, in Britain it's colour, same with flavor & flavour and other similar words. Personally speaking, I think "colour" is a more colorful way to spell it.

    If you are attending school in the US, your teachers will probably want the US version.

    language." - George Bernard Shaw


  • They're both right.

    "Color" is American, while "colour" is Canadian.
    Flavour, labour, etc. are all Canadian.


  • It depends where in the world you're located. The -or version is American style; people in the UK and most Commonwealth countries use the original, -our spelling.
