In the English FAQ "usable" is spelled "useable".

I would not call this a typo, because this is simply an American vs European difference.

I think we should make it clear, though, which dialect of the English alphabet we're using.

Yeah, this is not a mistake and "useable" is a perfectly valid spelling.
Not sure how you came to that conclusion when every source I can find on Google says otherwise.
But, I think it is best we keep it to USA standard, maybe there are some other accidental UK spellings. I'll take a look for them.

So which dialect are we using? Your response to this PR makes it unclear.

Maybe adding localisation could help? Say if you select English (United Kingdom) it will save that to your cookies and display UK pronunciations meanwhile selecting others like English (United States) would save that to your cookies and display US pronunciations? For example, if UK is selected you would get the word colour instead of color and if US is selected it’s vice versa.

I know we have folders with locale names but I haven’t bothered to look through to see if we already have something like this but if we don’t, it’s an idea worth considering.
