O.K. I get American:
protective: adj. Adapted or intended to afford protection. -n. Something
that protects.

protection: n. 1. The act of protecting. 2. The condition of being
protected. 3. One that protects. 4. A pass guaranteeing safe-conduct to
travelers  5. Economics A tarif system protecting domestic industries
from foreign competition 6. Money extorted by racketeers in exchange for
a promise of freedom from molestation.

protect: tr.v 1. To keep from harm, attack, or injury; to guard.

Larkin-who insists that American is not English though closely related.
