Okay this a little silly but how do you spell grey/gray? I use the grey way.


Sometime you need to
break the rules
and stand apart
ignore your .h.e.a.d.
and follow your .h.e.a.r.t.

What doesn't kill you
only makes you .s.t.r.o.n.g.e.r.
so when you think your hurtin' me
your just helpin' me last .l.o.n.g.e.r.

Hold on to who you love
stay true to what you know
take everything you dream of
and .n.e.v.e.r. let it go

I use both it depends how I'm typing, but they sound the same so why would it matter? But most of the time its Gray. It just looks better like that.

If Gray were a European word it would violate 20 rules. Which is why its so unique to germanic language like english.
WTF is an "European word"?
There is more than one language in Europe, buddy...

Grey, though I may have spelled it the other way sometimes
It was hard to tell just how I felt
To not recognize myself
I started to fade away

And after all it won't take long to fall in love
Now I know what I don't want
I learned that with you

The saddest part of a broken heart
Isn't the ending so much as the start
The tragedy starts from the very first spark

Losing your mind for the sake of your heart
The saddest part of a broken heart
Isn't the ending so much as the start

Gray, because when I was young there was a store across the street from me called Grey's Appliances and so I thought that Gray was the color and Grey was the last name...I didn't know for a while that both spellings were correct.

I usually spell it gray, but I used to spell it grey. I thought it was the correct way to. I guess they both are though *shrug*

"Grey" is British, which means people who use English spelling (such as Canadians) are supposed to use that spelling as well. "Gray" is the American variant.

Needless to say, I spell it as "grey."

I'm pretty sure that I've used both spellings at some point or another. Since I'm more used to "gray", though, that's the spelling I tend to use more often by far.
