Which of the following had the GREATEST influence in creating differences in British English versus American English

History

QveST [7]2 years ago

The correct answer is: Cultural values.

Noah Webster believed it was important for America to assert its cultural independence from Britain through language.

INTERPRETATION-

The British actually introduced the language to the Americas when they reached these lands by sea between the 16th and 17th centuries. At that time, spelling had not yet been standardized. It took the writing of the first dictionaries to set in stone how these words appeared.

In the UK, the dictionary was compiled by London-based scholars. Meanwhile, in the United States, the lexicographer was a man named Noah Webster. Allegedly, he changed how the words were spelled to make the American version different from the British as a way of showing cultural independence from its mother country.

Therefore, we can conclude that the correct option is D.
