There are some English words and phrases that can’t be said in American English. Like the “I inherited this government position from my father”. Or, “Sure hope the King doesn’t veto this legislation”.
Webster’s 1828 dictionary had only -or and is given much of the credit for the adoption of this form in the United States. By contrast, Johnson’s 1755 (pre-US independence and establishment) dictionary used -our for all words still so spelled in Britain (like colour), but also for words where the u has since been dropped: ambassadour, emperour, errour, governour, horrour, inferiour, mirrour, perturbatour, superiour, tenour, terrour, tremour. Johnson, unlike Webster, was not an advocate of spelling reform, but chose the spelling best derived, as he saw it, from among the variations in his sources.
Nope.
Although unjerk, spelling reform and standardisation is very necessary for english.

Also, as far as the “King Veto” part:

They’re not denying that happens in England, just pointing out that it functionally happens in the US too. So I’m not really sure what your point is.
Lol don’t watch the news

The last royal veto was in 1708, and any attempt to do so now would probably end the monarchy.

Except American English is the traditional. England kept fucking with their language and spelling, and now everything has 6 unnecessary vowels
