Their version of aluminium is more accurate to the original than ours.
Also use of the word "fall" for autumn is far older and more "English" than, well, "autumn".
I expect the ancient Romans, Germans, French, Angles and Saxons are all turning in their graves every time they hear some chav say "innit" or a business person use the term "idea shower", or, indeed, any one of us talk or express theirselves, because of our bastardization of the language.

Hahahaha Youtube comments FTW:
"I remember once when some guy from the car rental company came to pick up our jeep that had a problem in the middle of Arizona during my trip to the west coast.
He asked: where are you guys from ? I answered ''Belgium'' and he replied:
ah yea... where the hell is that ?
Sadly this reflects the average americans general knowledge "
Hahaahahahaha I met a stupid American once so all Americans are stupid.
