The word "Color" is one of these words.

It can be spelled "Color" as in mainly used form UK English.

Or as "Colour" as in mainly used form US English.

Both are widely accepted.

Certain words just have two ways of spelling it. Both should be considered correct, although some places in English speaking/writing countries strictly follow US/AU or UK typical form. This not excluding other countries or colonies.

Regards.

When a dictionary provides multiple spellings of a word, it usually indicates variations in how the word is spelled based on regional differences or historical usage. This can help users understand the different ways a word may be written while still conveying the same meaning.
