The 'u' and the 're' instead of 'er' (theatre/theater) are French leftovers. I'm English and happy to be rid of them. It's not like we haven't changed our own language over the years or dost thou thinketh differently?

Maybe they changed it so they didn't have to pay royalties or 'republicties' as they're called in America.

I have never seen that word in my life.   Its royalities here

Check again.

Checking............   Yep still royalties 

My mistake. I heard once that America changed royalty for something else instead.
