Commonwealth English Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
The term Commonwealth English is used as a collective term for those variants of the English language used in the Commonwealth of Nations or countries that were at one time memebers of the commonwealth, such as Australian English, British English, Irish English, Caribbean English, Canadian English, Hong Kong English, Indian English, New Zealand English, Pakistani English and South African English.Some of these forms of English have their own separate, recognised dictionaries. Australian English has had the Macquarie Dictionary since 1981 and in 1998 Oxford University Press published dictionaries for both Canadian English and New Zealand English after extended research in these English speaking countries.
Sometimes a Commonwealth English dialect deviates from British English, such as Canadian English spells program (as opposed to programme) and airplane (as opposed to aeroplane), while maintaining some British aspects otherwise, such as the spelling colour (as opposed to color).
