Usage notes

[edit]
  • Usage of program and programme:
    • US: program is the only spelling normally used, no matter which sense it is used in.
    • UK: programme is used in all cases except for computer code, in which case program has generally superseded programme since the 1960s. However, programme is still occasionally used for computer code, and some even consider it the only correct spelling also for this meaning.
    • Canada: both program and programme are used, but program is more common.
    • Australia: program is endorsed by the Macquarie Dictionary and is frequently used in both formal and informal settings.
    • New Zealand: programme is favoured by New Zealand dictionaries, and is endorsed by government usage; program is rarely seen outside the computing meaning.
    • Singapore and Malaysia: program and programme are interchangeable (the latter is more common), but only program is used in computing.
