Proper English… Everywhere
Proper English… Everywhere is a browser extension by the Control Zed Project which locally converts webpages from American English to your locale of English instantly.
Currently supporting the following dialects:
- United Kingdom
(Collins Dictionary) - Canada
(Oxford Canadian Dictionary) - Australia
(Macquarie Dictionary) - New Zealand
(NZ Oxford Dictionary) - and soon Ireland and UK regional variants
v1.0 - 07/2025
After months of trial and error and real-world usage testing, the new and improved extension is finally ready.
Version 1.0 contains the bare essentials:
-
Unambiguous-only spelling fixes (e.g.
color
-> colour, but notmeter
-> metre) - Support for 4 dialects
These rhymes against humanity alone include typos like:
- color
- favorite
- center
- defense
- aluminum
- license
- jewelry
- -ize and -yze words like organization and analyze (unless you are in Canada)
All in all, nearly 7000 carefully compiled safe word-swaps are enabled.
And fear not - as you would hope and expect, the extension does not interfere with pages in other languages, code, inputs or functionality.
