What English language is spoken in Britain?

While it's the same language as American English, there are some key differences:

* Pronunciation: British English has a different accent and pronunciation of words, such as "aluminum" vs. "aluminium".

* Vocabulary: There are some differences in vocabulary, such as "flat" vs. "apartment" or "lorry" vs. "truck".

* Spelling: There are some differences in spelling, such as "colour" vs. "color".
