English "English" and American "English"

Obviously there are words spelled differently in the UK compared to the states. What I have noticed when I am coding python accepts the UK spelling 'colour' as opposed to 'color'. I failed a question in sololearn challenge because I couldn't fit 'colour' in and timed out before I could change it. I haven't installed python and pycharm on my laptop as I am waiting a replacement but can I choose English (UK) language settings and if so will that be default if pre-installed in the os of a laptop purchased in the UK?

You can't change the default language from US Spelling to UK's. I use Windows so I don't know for other OS versions.
