Spelling Lesson

C-O-L-O-M-B-I-A

That's Colombia, with two "o"s. ZERO "u"s.

This is how you spell the name of the country where I live. North Americans tend to get confused, I think because we have Christopher ColUmbus, ColUmbia University, ColUmbia Sportwear, ColUmbia South Carolina, and so on. But there is no "u" in the name of the country.

Thank you.
