How do I put it?

By weswithaute - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, my daughter asked me how to spell "Orange". "O-R-A-N-G-E," I replied. Without missing a beat, she says, "No, I mean the colour, not the fruit." She's 16. FML

For her next lesson, tell her the colour brown is spelt S-H-I-T.

color, colour - one is english one is american. Both versions are correct, although teachers always say the english spelling is "more correct".

Actually, that's only how it's spelled in America. Everywhere else, it's 'colour'.

Lol sounds like you got a confused daughter :P

Well you should have taught her that when she was younger... So kind of your fault and hers...
