Whilst I'm pretty sure that the Americans here will pick the second option, I'm quite interested to see how the Aussies and Europeans vote.
Please note that i am not trying to start a 'which side is correct war' as both spellings are accepted by the mystical high-command of scientists; i am just intrigued to see if anyone outside of the USA uses the 'Aluminum' Variant.

Could we have a "Both" option? When addressing it as an element(ie. for Chemistry or compounds), I spell it "Aluminium". When addressing it as a product(foil, sheet metal, etc.), I spell it "Aluminum".

the international consensus, in the scientific world, is Aluminium, but a product can be named whatever the producer wants it to be

I speak ebonics so I don't think that word exists in my language.

It's a term that some people use to describe how inner-city African-Americans speak,basicly a broad generalization.

Basically what you see in rap videos. Watch a 3 minute rap video and you'll know 90% of the language.
Like ho instead of the "w" spelling of it; baby daddy instead of babies daddy; etc etc etc....
It's a language of slang basically.
