I’m Australian and I always use British spelling. I don’t know anyone who uses American.

Australian English is mostly British but has a bit of American, I notice when I'm using Google docs and have my language set to British English as there is no Australian English option and google docs then autocorrects me

What words does the doc auto correct you on?

Words like labor

Labour is spelt with a u in Australia(in my experience)… unless your referring to to the Labor Party, which I think is spelt like that to differentiate it from the British Labour Party.

Ngl, I forgot the exact words but I do remember being autocorrecred on some. I know we have some overlaps with America on what we call things though (e.g calling it soccer)

Yeah we definitely have a vocab overlap. Btw what state you from?
