xlsior, I think that boxed list you have there is a little, erm, well... It's not accurate! :)
I've worked my way down to 'C' and I can see 17 'American' terms I know people use in the UK!
A lot of english is seperated in accents, since I live in the NE of England (Geordie), I use words like canny (nice), aye (yes), nor (no), stottie (bread bun), haway(come on), reet (right), tac it (take it)... And there's countless others! A lot of my sentences vocally end up with the words man or like somewhere, like 'Haway man, am ganning doon the club, are ye coming like?'
So really, the Queens English is probably only ever spoken by toffs... and erm, the queen... 'I say, jolly good show old chap'
So language is different between the UK and USA, by a small margin, but it is also different in every county of the UK! And I guess the USA is the same?
So really, on the language front, it's not different at all! :)

P.S. I've just woke up by the way, and I havent got a clue on what I'm on about! :D
