Dependant is the UK spelling of that person that financially depends on you,
all other uses should use 'dent'.
Is that something that's just well known and I don't know that or do
you have that from some particular place/page/person? I'd like to
know more about some details. And to know whether I should send
another version for some other words (when there's time, as this is
not something we need). Just out of curiosity.
Thanks
Martin
