Nice straightforward grid. Do try to include non-US spellings, like maths, colour, etc. in your answers.

Well, it's listed as a US grid, so . . . :)

I did go through a second time to check the linking terms you provided. You can/should shorten ("truncate") them so when someone enters a typo (like matj or colo4) or uses strange, ungodly spellings like maths, colour, analyse, or manoeuvre, they'll usually be marked correct.

So yeah, "mat" works for math or maths, "colo" for color or colour, "tra" for track or tracc or trak, "elem" for elements, etc.

Nice but would be nice to have some red herrings

i lost out on a point for writing colours rather than colors, while colours is the way they spell it in my country

OLYMPICS!
