“jewellery”

You learn something new every day. I had no idea that jewelry could also be spelled “jewellery” until a Russian-Canadian friend of ours started a website selling her custom “jewellery” and I was convinced she misspelled the word. Turns out most English speakers in the world use the other spelling.

    Jake –
    I can’t believe I’m commenting on this, of all your posts. But yesterday I saw “jewellery” in an official-looking publication (can’t remember where) and wondered the same thing. Thanks for clearing that up. :-)
