Webster's differences describe the divergence between American and British spellings.

• A. The set of punctuation rules used in English
• B. The differences between English spellings in American and British usage
• C. The history of English grammar development
• D. The development of printing in English

Answer: (B)

The main idea being tested is how spellings differ between American and British English as catalogued by Webster. This is about orthography across national varieties—the way words are spelled in each variety. Webster’s influence helped popularize American spellings, which contrast with British forms. Examples include color versus colour, honor versus honour, theater versus theatre, organize versus organise, realize versus realise, and center versus centre. These differences illustrate how American and British usage diverge in spelling, rather than focusing on punctuation, grammar history, or printing development.
