Fun fact: you probably misspelled (misspelt?) "cajones" because that means "shelf boxes" in Spanish

    misspelled (misspelt?)

    Both are correct

    Spelt is more common in UK English, spelled is more common with Americans (I have no idea what other variants use)

    I’m American and I work in a German bakery. Every time I translate Dinkel to English for a customer (dinkle, farro, or spelt, the latter of which I use), I get a moment of total disorientation where I think I’ve just said nonsense because my brain connects it to the conjugation first.
