x.x Okay, I give up. Does anyone know how to get MS Word to spellcheck in British English instead of American English? Every time I select the 'UK English' dictionary option it goes right back to US English the very next word. ARRGH. *stabbity*

You need UK English to be able to sound like a proper snob. Really, you do. Besides, you also need it if your character is... well, British. XD

Well, yeah, if your char is British. She didn't say that, hence my confusion. She just said she had to change it b/c she talked to flame.

I have no idea why she needs it. All I know is, I can provide help (since I was taught British English to begin with). XD

Dude, you could probably help in like a million languages.

I am easily confused and it was telling me things were spelled wrong when my brain kept insisting that they were right and it took me a while to figure out that the reason for that was because I seem to have picked up certain British spellings... it's a very easy habit for me to fall back into, because of my years of French which use a lot of words that are way more similar to British spellings than US spellings. Took me years to quit spelling color and armor with a u. x.x; Bloody French.

But colour and armour are spelled with 'u's.
