Dear All, I noticed that the new Style Guide at The Times in London has this to say about spelling of the words metre and meter.
'metres, as in distance, poetry etc; meters, as in gas, electricity or parking etc' I note that here, in Australia, we use metre for distance, but in the USA it is spelled as meter for distance. My question is: Do other English speaking nations use the spelling metre or is it the USA, alone, that uses the spelling meter? Cheers, Pat Naughtin CAMS Geelong, Australia
