Labelled vs. labeled - WordReference Forums
Hi! I've discovered that this word can be spelled in both ways. However, my Microsoft dictionary (set to AE) always corrects "labelled" (which is my preferred spelling) to "labeled". Therefore, I was wondering if "labeled" is AE and "labelled" is BE and in order to write consistent AE I should...

ground floor, ground zero, first floor | WordReference Forums
Would you call to -1 first floor below ground/first floor? And so on to the floors below this one? From my limited experience with buildings like that, they have floors/levels labeled as B1, B2, B3 etc for basement 1, basement 2 etc. (If they are levels for car parks then they might be labeled P1 , P2 etc)

run small/fit smaller to size - WordReference Forums
If you normally wear a shirt labeled "medium" and therefore you picked out a medium to try on and, surprisingly, it didn't fit the salesperson could explain why. "Those shirts (from that company) run small." Every shirt labeled "Medium" made by that company would match (or be closer to) the size labeled "Small" by other companies.

apartment, unit, or suite | WordReference Forums
I guess 6554 is the condo building number, which contains 65, the name of the avenue. 203 implies it is on the second floor. According to what I read on other websites, 203 can be labelled as an apartment if the building is a residential building, or suite if the building is an office building. However, I'm wondering what "unit" means. It seems to refer to either an apartment or a suite.

In love, there is always one who kisses and one who offers the cheek ...
My mother found what is labeled a French proverb - "In love, there is always one who kisses and one who offers the cheek", but two French friends have never heard it. Does anyone know that this is indeed a French proverb, and what it is in French?

One who pees. Is peeer a word? - WordReference Forums
Began looking for evidence of this word when I labeled someone a nervous peeer. So far all I've seen is typos of the word peer. Any insight into terms for someone who urinates or is urinating would be welcome.
