Reclaiming my English.

I'm Australian, I use Australian idioms, spelling, contractions, et al in emails to regular contacts for 20+ years via gmail (Yet Another Early Gmail Invite User).

Despite having selected UK English (there's no 'Strayla option) gmail via the web still insists on suggesting I morph into a cookie cutter middle north American Engrish typer.

Yes, Engrish .. AmerEngrish is an abomination.

Feck that shite. Hard.
