There are many differences between British English and American English.I used to teach a course about the differences between the two.We speak English on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean but we have many differences in our common language.We have examples of the same words having very different meanings，differing spellings of the same words as well as completely different words for the same things.Here are some examples.

　　A cookie in the US is called a biscuit in the UK.A biscuit in the US is a small cake in the UK.In the UK，a pie can be made from either meat or fruit；while in the US，pies are normally made from fruit，pot pies are made from meat.Most things are measured in grams and kilograms in the US，not ounces and pounds.

　　One very obvious difference is the side of the road we each choose to drive on.Petrol in the UK is gas in the US.The place where we fill up our cars，in the UK，is a garage；while in the US，it's a gas station.The term garage is also used as a place to store your car next to or close by your house.In the UK we call a lorry what is known as a truck in the US.

　　An elevator in the US is called a lift here，and the first floor in the US，is called the ground floor here，so many visitors get off on the wrong floor in British hotels.

　　There are countless examples of differences within our one shared language.With so many differences，no wonder it's hard to understand each other well.
