Talk:labelled

labelled vs labeled. I believe one is CW spelling and one is US spelling. But I'm not positive which is which or I'd label them. JillianE 16:41, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

You mean you would have them labelled - lol — This unsigned comment was added by 137.120.111.42 (talk) at 15:41, 21 February 2007 (UTC).

The CW spellings double the consonant to maintain /ɛ/, what in America we call a short E. In US English the pronunciation is different and so the rule is analogous to the past of listen. That's my understanding anyway.

I'm not sure how to lable the entry though. Should each and every definition be tagged {{CW}}?DAVilla 19:31, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

I've added information as a Usage note. How does that look? --EncycloPetey 19:42, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
