as far as Im aware - basic grammar should apply in both e.g. the verb and the subject must agree in number and gender, etc. However in American English they tend to spell words the way it is pronounced, whereas in British English spelling and pronunciation is influenced by the ancient languages of the celts, welsh etc.
