Or an omelette even! I didn't know that was one of the many words that
fall
into the category of "Two nations separated by a common language"


Probably, but I don't think minor differences in spelling count (like
"honor" and "honour", etc).


I don't think they count, either. "Separated by a common language" usually
refers to different meanings, and sometimes different pronunciation, but
not to very minor spelling differences. I think this was a subtle spelling
flame.


That wasn't my intention, Joyce. It was an observation.


OK, sorry. I've seen it spelled both ways, actually.
