Correct spelling

standard

Correct spelling, explanation: this form comes from French, meaning military banner (estandart). In English, it was probably adapted by merging stand and hard together (first in the same meaning as French). Therefore it should be written with d: standard, not standart.

Definition of standard:

Is this model special or it’s a standard?


Incorrect spelling

standart

Incorrect spelling, explanation: standart is a mistaken form, though similar to standard’s French core estandart. In English, it was however first used as standhard, from two words stand and hard. Therefore today’s correct form is standard.
