Origin of the English language is heavily French influenced, more so the British English orthography ; United States' English seems to align more with the Germanic spellings and pronunciations (e.g., "z" vs. "s" ; "ck" vs. "que").

Paradoxical is defined as seeming impossible or difficult to understand because of containing two opposite facts or ideas, as in: we're told that to save the planet "we should stop carbon emissions by buying renewable energy tech from China and shut down all our fossil-fuel-burning power plants", while China burns more coal than the rest of the planet combined, and has MANY new coal plants under construction or in planning.
