Let's look at examples:
>Plutonium
>Root word = Pluto

>Thorium
>Root word = Thor

>Titanium
>Root word = Titan

Now....
>Aluminum
>Root word = Alum
>Root word =/= Alumin

Brits, say it with me... A - loo - men - um
It's really that simple

following your examples it should be Alumium though, none of your words end in -inum

Actually you disproved yourself because the only common thing between those words is that they end in -ium which is the case with Aluminium but not Aluminum

Thought I would get a midwit take on this. Here's why you're wrong, still, again:

PlutOnium. Connector is a vowel, thus a consonant is needed

AluMinum. Connector is a consonant, thus a vowel is needed.

Fucking derp. Teaching English to the people who invented it is highly satisfying.
Also, get the retarded "u" out of color, honor, etc.
ALSO, it's "A history", not "An history" since normal people pronounce the H.

Actually that would only be the case if the root word for Plutonium was "Pluton".
Derp.

Actually the root word for Aluminum is from the Greek Alum, thus it cannot be Aluminium because the root word is not Alumin.

You're the midwit here
Root = Alum
Suffix = -ium
Connector = whatever is needed to connect root to suffix
Aluminium is valid, Al-oo-mi-num doesn't follow the rules and is just an arbitrary goyslop creation. If you want to insist the connector has to follow those rules then the correct spelling would be Alumium.

I didn't even think properly because Aluminium even follows your connector rule of consonant then vowel so you are 100% wrong on all counts

I think you're right. The British basically just took the French word and incorporated it into their piece of shit language without asking themselves if it made sense like they always do, whilst the Americans actually did some research and reached the correct conclusion.
