[Corpora-List] American and British English spelling converter

[Geoffrey Sampson]

I thought Harold's example "half four" was intended as something that is
said _only_ by Brits -- Americans certainly never seemed to use it when
I lived there, but that is a long time ago.

If "have you got" is no longer distinctively-British enough (though, do
Americans really say it), how about "her skin has spots on", absolutely
normal in England but impossible in America without an "it" on the end.
