I am going to to reply to the original post, since the follow-ups are 
irrelevant.

American-dialect English (also known as American-English) is more 
related to English of the 17th-18th century than 'Commonwealth-English' 
is. Neither Commonwealth-English nor American-English are 
'English-English' or proper English more than the other; if you want 
proper English, look to Shakespearean early Modern English.

By the way, I am an American.
