>>6228561Fun fact: English in the American south is the least changed of all dialects of English since its split almost 250 years ago. The various British accents have all gone through extreme metamorphoses since then. Therefore, it would be more accurate to call the "American" option "Traditional" and having the British option as an alternative (though not simplified.) This is also ignoring things such as reversing the artificial spelling reforms put into English by the British prior to the colonization of America, such as the addition of "u" to words like "color" and "flavor" with the intention of making them seem more "French".
