Hugh should be 'Huge'
I have also seen the word 'spelled' used by a few people here, even though it is not actually wrong to use 'spelled' you can also use 'spelt' for past tense of 'spell'.
Another word I see here a lot is 'learned', again it is not wrong but 'learnt' is also used as the past tense of 'learn'.
I guess it depends on if you are using US English or UK English but both are technically correct. In Australia we are mostly taught UK English in schools. (for the record I finished school far to many years ago to mention but I believe they now allow both the UK and US spelling here in Australian schools, like 'colour' and 'color', 'honour' and 'honor' etc.)

Thanks, i know its not bad at all. I always liked english as a language and almost "learnt" it by myself. On school only for 2 years but it was very basic and it was 20 years ago (hell, im old haha). You are right, here in Spain many people are bad in english, many dont even speak it because its not a priority on the schools. I was lucky because i was born in Germany and was there many years, did the school there and english was required. Also hanging out in english forums, chats, have friends in us and uk should help much too.
Maybe you can be my new personal english teacher ?
