The version of English called American English is wrong and contains simply incorrect spellings. Etymology is much more important than phonetics, and American English ignores etymology, especially English’s French etymology. For example, American English uses ‘gram’. Ugggggghhhhhh! ‘Gramme’ comes from French ‘Gramme’ and Latin ‘Gramma.’ So there.
