I feel a lock coming on

(both learnt and learned are correct - learnt is more common in British English, and learned in American English.)

Please don't correct my spelling. Look to your own. But as an EFL teacher I'll deign to teach you that 'learnt' is completely standard English, though not an Americanism. Don't believe me? Check a dictionary. They have them where ever it is in the Far East that you work, don't they?
