It's referred to in Greek mythology, so it's not necessarily Greek. Chimera would be a more obvious spelling. Chimaera is a politically correct one, such as "grey" and "gray", "adrenaline" and "adrenalin".

They're both English. Americans (particularly me) think your spelling of words like color and humor are a bit fruity. They're both politically correct. Chimera would be normal version, and Chimaera would be political one. Both Americans and English spell different ways, but politically correct ones would be for both languages.

Yep. Chimera is the correct spelling, until people developed "chimaera".

It says, for all you illegible dust-eaters:

SPELLING: Chimera
PRONUNCIATION: Chim-ae-ra.

It's like rewriting, say, "Quick" so that it is spelled "Qwick".
