I'd just like to remind all you Leftpondians that the past participle of "spell" is spelt "spelt" in the UK, so this was a perfectly good English sentence.

I guess I shouldn't trust a dictionary all the time...but.... Confused I usually do...

Main Entry: 1spelt
Pronunciation: 'spelt
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English, from Late Latin spelta, of Germanic origin; perhaps akin to Middle High German spelte split piece of wood, Old High German spaltan to split -- more at SPLIT
: an ancient wheat (Triticum spelta syn. T. aestivum spelta) with spikelets containing two light red grains; also : the grain of spelt

By the way - should I not trust a dictionary all the time?
