Leave it to Merriam-Webster to deliver patriotic smackdown to UK
How do you spelling “winning”?
US dictionary publisher Merriam-Webster brutally roasted the redcoats in a patriotic post taking aim at the United Kingdom to celebrate America’s 250th birthday.
“Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?” the nation’s oldest dictionary publisher wrote on X.
“Because we gave them that L in 1776.”
The post had garnered more than 12 million views and over 2,400 replies as of Saturday morning — with many cheering the Independence Day smackdown.
