“Aluminum” was the name given to the element by the discoverer himself so get fricked.

Also Brits saying “Urinal” is cringe as frick.

Brits Hate it when Americans say Aluminum

This word, for some reason, ignites the tempers of British people when they hear American people say it. Aluminium, with the extra i, is the BrE spelling, defended over decades as being “correct”.

But the man who discovered and named the element couldn’t decide himself what “correct” was. Sir Humphry Davy, who discovered the element in 1807, first named the metal alumium, which was quickly changed to aluminum. He finally settled on aluminium – some five years later. Aluminium was favoured by academics for it’s classical sounding name, that fit with other elements like sodium and potassium – but the huge gap from discovery and initial naming to the final form of aluminium was significant enough to allow aluminum to prevail in American English.

So there you have it – aluminum was actually the original name for the element, which was renamed after pressure from British academics – but that message never made it to America.

So is this britisher edge?
