  1. Isn’t colour the universally correct, British-verified spelling of the word? Or am I missing the sarcasm?

  2. Give this guy some slack, at least this specimen could tell the difference between your and you’re. Not a common sight in the land of the free

  3. Imagine calling out a world-renowned author who sold millions of copies on spelling lmao

  4. Rare JKR w, I’ve always hated how the savages pronounce “herbs”.

  5. The “philosophers stone” is called the “sorcerers stone” in America because they didn’t think people would know what “philosophers” meant. There’s literally two versions of the first film because of how dumb Americans are.

    It’s a kids book and pretty much no English kid knew what “philosopher” meant before reading the book yet it seems we are more able to learn a new term than yank stains.

  6. I prefer the “ou” than just “o” in words because it looks nicer in writing.

    Also because my English teacher was adamant that he was teaching British English and not American English.

  7. I like using the English way, armour and colour just looks better than armor and color.

  8. A rare moment where I agree with JK Rowling, didn’t think that was possible.

  9. Why am I on the side of JK Rowling. Not our fault the Americans declared war on the letter U and H

  10. Not Europeans and Americans lecturing (incorrectly) a native English speaker on how to spell the word “colour” the wrong and American way of spelling it.

  11. There’s a 0% chance OP is British.

    The title should’ve been: “J.K. Rowling got called out for spelling English words correctly by an American savage”

  12. I can’t bring myself to side with Joanne. I’m spelling it without a U now.

  13. I would joke about JK Rowling picking random fights with random nobodies on Twitter, but at least this time she’s not talking about how trans women are the blight of humanity so I’ll take it.

  14. She is right though

  15. Please stop, you’re making me agree with JK Rowling

    I had to agree with Marjorie Taylor-Greene the other day, it was terrible and I can’t take much more

  16. English spelling is so messed up anyway. I hate encountering new words, because there is no sure way to know how to spell something I hear or to pronounce something I read.

  17. That’s cool and all, but she’ll never be on the level of J.R.R. “I wrote the Oxford dictionary so I can choose the plural of dwarf however the fuck I want” Tolkien

  18. How much do I win if I bet that she replied to an Ameritard?
