programme

programme
program, programme
The standard spelling in BrE, except in computer language, is programme, and in AmE it is program. In the context of computing, program is used in both AmE and BrE, and as a verb has inflected forms programmed, programming in BrE (with the variants programed, programing also available in AmE). Historically, the spelling program is better established in BrE, but it was replaced in the 19c by the French form programme, which however did not establish itself in the US.
