Hello, there.
I'm surely in the wrong group, but I haven't seen a better one. Maybe anyone
can tell me where else to post this article.

I'm looking for a kind of dictionary which contents a list of words having a
different spelling in American and British English, but the same meaning.
Examples of this would be can - tin, color - colour, program - programme and
so on.

Has anyone seen this kind of list anywhere, or can tell me where I can get
such one. It doesn't have to be an electronic list. If someone knows where
to get it by postal mail, tell it to me!

Please reply only via e-mail, because I don't read this group.

Thank you very much.
