 Which English is it?
I just took a quick test, to test the test, so to speak.
I discovered that the test that I took was designed for Oxford English, which is quite different than American English.
I think I would have been more clued into the fact had I noticed any words spelled the 'Oxford' way.
If I am misunderstanding this, I would be certainly glad to discuss why someone believes that storey is a proper word to indicate building levels.
(American Heritage Dictionary disagrees with you.)
Also the use of draught. It is not used in the US according to the same source.
And being a sometimes draftsman, I'd better be labeling the stories of a building correctly.
(I only do this when electronic control systems are revised and the buildings drawings need updating to reflect the change in systems.)
Maybe Funk & Waggonel and Webster's disagree with American Heritage?
