 This document includes a couple of notes on how Agora documentation should be written and formatted.
 
+## British/American spelling and grammatical differences
+
+The difference between British and American English is wider than a lot of people presume. Authors are permitted to use whichever of the two they learned and therefore feel more comfortable with.

In this instance please alter your use of the language to maintain consistency.

+1.  Whilst the name of the currency is subject to variance, its 'symbol' is unambiguously 'ADA'. Therefore when talking about amounts e.g. 'Trillian deposits 100ADA', use 'ADA'.
+2.  Exercise _reasonable consistency_. The use of an 'Ada' at the beginning of the document and an 'ada' 3000 words later is not something worth losing sleep over. Inconsistency within paragraphs or (gasp!) _sentences_ should always be avoided.
