Language (i.e. US English) about objective-c-style-guide

[icanzilb]

interesting point ... I give a +1 for US English ... I could never figure out why do we need a "u" in color

[ColinEberhardt]

So that it is spelt correctly :-P

I don't think I can be friends with Marin anymore! ;]

I think the writing guide already says something about US English so it probably makes sense here too. Also to be consistent with UIColor and other US spelling in the official SDK.

@ColinEberhardt I think "spelt correctly" is defined by which spell checker you have on :) Anyways ... @gregheo makes a great comment there - UIColor and NSColor (ehm, also SKColor) are already using US spelling

[mattjgalloway]

Agreed. It looks odd to do this:

UIColor *myColour = ...;

Or at least to a newcomer, for whom English is not their first language, it adds cognitive load that they don't need.

[ColinEberhardt]

I find spelling to be a considerable cognitive load ;-)

and I'm a +1 vote for the leftpondian version of English.

[moayes]

+1 for US English for the sake of consistency.

[rwenderlich]

+1 for US English (good think Mike Daley isn't here, I don't think he'd let this go w/o a fight! ;])

+1 for US English. +1 for the comment about Mike Daley 😉

[icanzilb]

+1 for US English (weird thing that @micpringle isn't watching careful enough to edit Ray's "good think")

@icanzilb It was a test. You passed 😉

[icanzilb]

sweet!
