Jewelry is misspelled as Jewellery in Assets dialog box. This should be taken note of and corrected sometime in the future.

I presume you are commenting in the en_US spelling as this is the correct spelling for en_GB.

I have learned something new.

I live in the USA and had never encountered jewelry spelled as jewellery before. But you are correct as Google confirms that jewellery is the common spelling in Britain and in former parts of the British empire. The version of MMEX that I use seems to prefer the use of American English (gray rather than grey, color rather than colour, organize rather than organise) so I would contend it would be inconsistent to prefer the use of "jewellery" rather than "jewelry" in this context even though it is not a misspelling as I originally thought it was. Thanks for the insight.

Have submitted a change to correct this for US language. Americans are a little odd with their use of 'English' ... :lol:

Earlier someone has provided en_US.po file for American English. But then it was deleted.
Using https://poedit.net/download it easy to translate then share that for others.

Update:
Earlier someone has provided English_UK.po file for American English. But then it was deleted.
