    Difference Between Color And Colour

  • I know the Canadian way I spell it is Colour.

    And I think the Americans spell it Color.

    Ether way it's spelled differently but the same meaning.

  • 7 years ago

    It is the same thing. US English spells it color and British English spells it colour. It is the same difference in favorite and favourite.

    The United States is the only Country that drops the 'u' from the spelling.

    Words and languages evolve over time, so I expect 'colour' to be the older version. And 'color' to be the modern form. They both get the same message across, so I wouldn't be too confuzzled (my word!).

    color is the American spelling and colour is the Canadian/British spelling

    Same goes for grey(or Gray), aluminum(aluminium), apologize(apologise), armour(armor), centre(center).

    I'm Canadian, so I honestly don't have a problem with the difference

    Some places spell things differently like where i live we spell it

    Colour,centre,metre,flavour. Instead of color,center,meter,flavor
