French has the advantage that spelling is the same all over the world.
Only some words and expressions are used in some countries and not others.

For instance, in Quebec, we use compétitionner (compete), whereas in
France, they seemingly ignore this word and say concurrencer. In France,
they ignore the word dispendieux (costly), though it's part of all the
most standard French dictionary and commonly used in Quebec.

But, whenever you use a word, it's spelled the same way.
