And Lochac. Might I recommend for those interested a cracking book on this
subject called "The Story of English" (McCrum, Cran & MacNeil, BBC 1992),
which details the evolution of the English language and it's many variants,
including the American "reform" in the late 18th and early 19th centuries
by Noah Webster.

Having said that, can we please steer this back to cooking stuff?
