2. THE DEFINITION OF SPILLING
Spelling is a set of conventions that
regulate the way of
using graphemes(writing system) to
represent a language in its written form. In
other words, spelling is the rendering of
speech sound (phoneme) into writing
(grapheme). Spelling is one of the
elements of orthography, and highly
standardized spelling is
a prescriptive element.
According to Cambridge dictionary the
definition of spilling is forming words with
the correct letters in the correct order, or
the ability to do this.
5. when it comes to the
differences in British English
and American English
spellings even brits get caught
out occasionally. The main
difference is that British
English keeps the spelling of
words it has absorbed from
other languages, mainly
French and German. Whilst
American English spellings are
based mostly on how the word
sounds when it is spoken.

7. EXAMPLES ABOUT DEFERENT BETWEEN

end in ‘or’ in American English:

always spelled with ‘ize’ at the

8. In British spelling ‘L’ is doubled in verbs ending in a
vowel plus ‘L’. In American English, the ‘L’ is not
doubled:

either ‘og’ or ‘ogue in American English:

Dialogue dialog or dialogue
9. British English words that are spelled with the double vowels ae or oe tend to be just
spelled with an e in American English: Although there are exceptions to the rule. For
example archaeology is spelt in the same way as British English but archeology
would be acceptable in America but is incorrect in the UK.

10. • British and American English are very similar
in most respects. However, there are some
small but important differences in the way
that some vocabulary groups are formed.
• The following patterns of suffixes will be
useful to remember when switching between
the two languages.
• Words ending in -re in British English
become -er in American English:
fibre-fiber
litre-liter
centre-center
•
One practical move is to ensure that the
word processor you use has the spell
checking feature set to the correct variant of
English.
•
That just about covers this evaluation of the
minor differences between the formation of
British and American English suffixes. Just
remember that unless you are studying in a
university or writing for a particular audience,
either spelling convention is acceptable.

15. Now is the perfect time to think through the answer to
this question—because the way you handle errors can
make a huge difference in your ability and confidence.
So let’s dig in!
If you misspells many
words during spelling
lessons, that’s a sign
that you should slow
down the pacing of
your lessons. You want
to make sure to
masters the current
spelling patterns
before you add more.
This two-step process will help. If you have already
covered the spelling concepts related to the misspelled
word, don’t rush to correct the word. Instead, write
yourself a private note to review those concepts during
your next spelling This is really hard for some parents,
but once you’ve written your note, ignore the spelling
mistake! mark up your paper with spelling corrections,
and try to correct it Note that you will be holding the
responsibility for writing words correctly if you have
already taught, but at this stage, when the mistake is
made outside of the spelling , do not stopping
everything and rewrite.
