The main different between British and American English is in their pronunciation, vocabulary, and spelling.
The sounds of British English and American English are clearly different. The most obvious difference is how
the letter r is pronounced. When the r follows a vowel in the same word in British English, the r is not
pronounced (as in fork, car, first and horse) but the letter r is pronounced in American English. Words such as
bill and biscuit are often used in both American and British, yet they might mean different things in both. The
word "bill" has various meanings, the most of which are shared by American and British. However, in
American, the word "bill" often refers to a piece of paper money (as in a "dollar bill"), whereas in British, the
word "note" is more commonly used. It can also refer to the visor of a cap in American, however this is
uncommon and the word "football" in British refers to association football, often known as soccer but
"Football" in American refers to American football. Let's have a look at spelling now. In general, American
English -or is comparable to -our in British English, as in color-color, and American English -er is equivalent
to -re in British English, as in center and center. In American English, the final e is removed from verbs when
forming gerunds, whereas in British English, this is not common, as in routing and routing (US-UK), and
another common difference is that Americans prefer -ization and -ize over -isation and -ise, as in organizationorganize (American) and organise-organization (British).
