Grey or Gray?
 

Why do british people and Americans spell it differently?

Uh, the Atlantic Ocean.

There were more gray fish than grey fish near canada and the U.K, and there were more grey fish than gray fish near the U.S.

So really, it would seem unusual to be all "Wuddup I'm doing the inverse" to this situation. But like, why do you drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? I think it's NUTS. People's noggins need to be tuned at certain points of their life. They go into the cold and they think different.

So really, because people's heads think different, my answer to this will be because of stringed instruments that need to be tuned on occasion.

i thought this would have been a poll. grey for me thanks.

Can you not just google it or find a book that answers your question?

I like to spell it different depending on my mood. Sometimes you see a color and you go, "that is so GRAY!" Other times you're like, "that is so GREY!" Do you guys know what I MEAN?

i thought grey was the colour(colour has a u over here)
and gray was a surname!!!! anywhere

yup, it's colour and gray here. And I just found out today that the canadian way of "minimize" is "minimise", but minimise sounds wrong. I still think my previous answer was MOST APPROPRIATE

Effacement. Effacement? Effacement. I generally privelege the vernacular over propriety. EFFACEMENT.

I read "Grey or Gay?"

I don't do it either way exclusively.. I guess Canadians are supposed to put gray? I prefer grey, but I don't care.
