	British / American
		American practice is fl for live, white for neutral and green for earth, although it is not normal for the cord from the outlet to the appliance to have colour coded wires.
		British houses simply do not have such things, the nearest equivalents are "patio" meaning an unroofed area adjacent to a building paved with slabs, "verandah" a covered and glassed walkway along the side of a building and "conservatory" a room-like extension entirely walled and roofed in glass.
		British houses are usually numbered serially starting from one end of a road or street with even numbers on one side and odd numbers on the other side, however it is not uncommon to find them numbered sequentially up one side of the road and down the other.

	British American - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		British Americans are Americans whose ancestry stems, either wholly or in part, from one of the four constituent nations of the United Kingdom.
		British Americans have English, Scottish, Scots-Irish (Ulster), or Welsh family heritages, or came from Canada where their ancestors were of British descent.
		With their roots being in America for such a long period, many British Americans and a significant number of Irish Americans have begun to think of themselves ancestrally simply as "Americans." This is especially true in the South.

	Spelling differences between British and American English
		In British English, words that end in -l preceded by a vowel usually double the -l when a suffix is added, while in American English the letter is not doubled.
		Generally, the rule is that if there is a verb form with -ed, American English will use it, and if there is a form with -t, British English uses it.
		For example, both American and British English would use the word 'worked' for the past form of 'to work', and in American English it is common to hear the word 'knelt' as the past tense of 'to kneel'.
