    Am I the only one questioning the spelling of “tyre“?

        And it’s probably India which has the most English speakers in the world (counting it as native, second or third language)

        Is it just me or is this response the wrong response? I would have expected:

        not everyone speaks bri’ish english

        (that missing “r” in “ameican” inspires the use of the “improper” option here). It’s American English that uses “tire”, after all, and the rest of the Anglosphere that has “tyre”.
