    Note

    American usage drops a letter: one t, where the doubled-t omelette keeps the French shape familiar in British usage. Nothing else changes. The dish is the same, a cheese omelet is a cheese omelette, and the plural simply adds -s (omelets). Choose the spelling by audience, not meaning. In an American text the single-t form is the expected one, and mixing the two in one document looks careless.
