Thank you, dogsbody70, for your comment.
And I don't want you to be displeased with my AE spelling.
This was not MY choice. There was no choice.
After the WWII, in Japan, every junior high school and high school teachers must teach American English. All textbooks are written in AE.
Maybe, MacArthur (GHQ) 's choice.
So I've learned (not learnt) American English, and its spellings.
And one more thing is that the spellchecker of Firefox always correct me to use the American spellings.
The spellchecker might be stupid, rather than clever??
I know not a few Japanese people admire the Queen's English, though.
Such people tend to go to the UK, I think.
I want to go to the UK too, especially to the Wimbledon, because I'm a tennis player, oops,
was a tennis player, when I was not fatty.
