What's the difference with "centre" and "center"?
They have the same pronunciation and the similar meaning. I don't know how to use them. Who can explain them to me? Thank you very much.
Centre is the British English spelling.
Center is American.

Hi Jane
Here is how I use the two words
"Center" would be a synonym for "middle". (He stood in the center of the circle.)
"Centre" would be the word used to describe a gathering place. (The crowd gathered at the new Arts and Innovation Centre.)
