What's this "American English" rubbish?  American is what many people 
speak in America; it has a passing resemblance to English but is largely 
misunderstood by English-speaking people. See the example above where a 
chip in American is a crisp in English, and chips in Britain are "French 
Fries" or something similar in American.

English is what must people speak in Great Britain, with a variety of 
regional accents; and some totally distinct languages like Welsh or Gaelic

Australian "Strine" is what most speak in Australia.
