Who is the spelling be failure who put "judgment" at the only
spelling for that word in the US English dictionary? WordPerfect
(which I have learned to trust far more on spelling issues than OOo)
spells the word the word either "judgement" or "judgment."
Wiktionary lists "judgment" as an ALTERNATIVE spelling
No, it lists either as an alternative spelling of the other. And
Wiktionary is not divided into separate US and UK lists in the first
place.
As an examination of any real dictionary will show, "judgment" is the
normal US spelling, and the normal UK spelling in legal work, while
"judgement" is the normal UK spelling outside of legal work.
