This may be a very dumb question, but is the color spelled "gray" or "grey"? I've always spelled it "grey" but everyone else spells it "gray". When I spell "grey" on ma computer it doesn't say it's not a word. Whenever I spell it like that no one tells me I'm wrong. You're like, the few people I'd actually ask this question to because you're the only people I trust not to laugh out loud xDDDD I'm assuming they're both correct?

Yep. Gray is the spelling I use because it reminds me of soft blankets. Um.

It will tell you if you look it up, but I'm fairly sure grey is used more often in the UK and Canada and gray is more often used in the US. They're completely interchangeable. Unless you're using both in one piece of writing then u better stick to one

I usually use gray, but grey in formal writing.

Oh... Well, apparently it's "gray" in the US, you're right. But whenever I spell a word in a way another country spells it (etc., "colour" instead of "color"), my computer says it's not a word, but it says that "grey" is. Oh, well. Imma keep using "grey" even though I'm American 'cause I've been using "grey" since I was four xD

If 'colour' isn't a word for your computer, then most likely the spell check is American-English.

My computer says favorite is wrong, and it's spelt favourite or however you British people spell it.

Idk how to disable it xD Doesn't really matter anyway, usually my computer is too slow to do anything so I rarely get on it. I have a desktop that's older than I am.
