Ways to tell them apart:

etymology
  • Judgement is more commonly used in British English, while judgment is the preferred spelling in American English.
  • Both terms refer to the same concept, so choosing one over the other can depend on the regional audience you're addressing.
  • Judgement has an extra e which makes it appear longer than the American spelling, judgment.
  • While both spellings are correct, ensure consistency when writing by sticking to one particular version throughout a document.
  • You can remember that judgement is for British eyes and judgment for American style.
