Funny, as a lot of people don't even regard England as a European country (European snobbery, and possibly some British snobbery as well).
However, it's simply a fact of life that because of the monolithic but mostly monolingual USA (not so much the UK), English is pretty much a de facto lingua franca.
We need a list of the most fractured spellings. Flaccid becomes flaksid, for example, and dour becomes dur. Any others?
I wonder if anyone knows what happens to homonyms (words which sound alike but are spelled differently)? How does Euroenglish spell this phrase: "John Tue brought two tutus to his daughter, and some dancing shoes, too."
