    As a past tense for 'Spelling' then 'Spelt' is English and a wheat, 'Spelled' is American... sama sama as for 'Smelling" where 'smelt' (which is also a fish) and 'smelled' occur so I call it a draw :-)

    EG "his claims smelt like Bullshit to us all" as opposed to "his claims smelled like Bullshit to us all" both mean the same thing depending on the grammatical roots of the audience.

    (see how cleverly I avoided the hijack there)

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
