It is sufficient to say "English"; we don't need to label our
language with its country of origin, for the same reason that we
don't need to put the name of our country on our stamps. And Mr
Bos is correct. In English, using "doubt" in the noun form as a
synonym for "question" is simply wrong.
But "have a doubt" is an idiom. I have been known to have doubts,
including whether this is worth fussing over. Concentrate on the
silly abbreviations, lack of capitalization, funny punctuation that
really foul the articles.
