Formula

This is a photo showing some formulas or formulae. The German translation is ‘Formeln’.

Remember, a form is a printed document in which you can insert facts or answers, like a ‘tax form or an ‘application form’. The German translation is ‘Formular’.

American and British English
As I already wrote earlier, British and American English often spell the same word differently. For example, British English words ending in -our usually end in -or in American English:
British                American
humour                humor
colour                  color
labour                  labor
