Definition
British spelling of 'endeavored'; tried hard to do something; made a serious effort.
Etymology
British English spelling of the past tense of 'endeavor,' following the British convention of doubling the final consonant before adding '-ed' in some words (though this word's doubling is inconsistent).
Kelly Says
Interestingly, 'endeavoured' with two 'u's is the traditional British spelling, but modern usage is shifting toward 'endeavored' in both British and American English because fewer people follow the old doubling rules.
