Question about English (US)
Is it more common in the US to see Gray or Grey written?
People say that the American version of that color is Gray but I’ve seen people write Grey too... Is it a regional thing or in general in America both can be used interchangeably even if one of them is more used?

According to Google you're correct. I'm Canadian and I was taught grey in school. We tend to use UK spellings. Ultimately it doesn't matter which one you use. I use whatever spell check gives me first.
