Well, the linguistic differences are minimal as well as the differences 
beween American and British are minimal; actually the sets of words are 
different as for example the various theater/theatre, center/centre,  
analyse/analize and so on; Barbara also says that american and british 
hyhenation are different being the former substancially phinetic and the 
latter substancially etymological, no more no less than modern and 
classic Latin.
