Best Answer

Spelling in American English is a little different from spelling in British English; both are English. In addition, many people who can speak a language fluently do not necessarily know how to spell words in that language, yet they still "use" that language. For example, a little child "uses" English but probably cannot spell the words that he or she "uses."

Of canadans with English as ther first language?

I am a Canadian. My first language is English. I can spell 'Canadian.' I can spell 'English.' I can spell 'their.' I can spell 'language.' I am aware that a sentence requires at least a noun (or pronoun) and a verb. I learned all of the above in elementary school.
