Great question! Both "toward" and "towards" are correct and can be used interchangeably in most contexts. The choice between them is simply a matter of personal preference or regional variations. In American English, "toward" is more commonly used, while "towards" is more commonly used in British English.
Think of it like this: "toward" is like taking the direct route, while "towards" is like taking a slightly scenic route. Both will get you to your destination, but they have a slight difference in style.
So, whether you say "I'm walking toward the park" or "I'm walking towards the park," it's really up to you! Just be consistent in your choice throughout your writing. Now, if you have any other language questions, feel free to ask! 😊
