The two words mean exactly the same thing. Both spelt and spelled are the past tense of the verb to spell.

The word spelt is much more common in the UK and locations using British English, but is becoming less used. It has not been widely used in the US for many decades. The word spelled can also be used as the past tense for the verb to spell meaning "temporarily relieved another worker."

The noun spelt is a type of grain once growing wild in Europe (Triticum spelta).
