Territory-Related Words in English | DavidAppleyard.com
 Where in the world do you come from?
Learning the English names of lesser-known countries or dependencies, and their corresponding citizens, nationality adjectives and languages, is no mean task. These word families tend to inflect somewhat inconsistently and are occasionally subject to change. Many of them are derived from languages with very different syllabaries to our own, and so it often occurs that more than one form gains acceptance in English, e.g. Azerbaijani and Azeri; Singhalese, Sinhalese and Sinhala; Turkmen, Turkmenian and Turkoman; or Tadjik and Tajik.

Words Often Confused

Words Often Confused | DavidAppleyard.com:

In this section of our English User Guides we'll attempt to clarify differences in meaning between words which, because they look or sound very similar, tend to cause confusion among both foreign students of English and native speakers alike.

It will soon become apparent that, in order to distinguish between homonyms of entirely different meaning, British English has retained a richer variety of spellings (e.g. check and cheque, tire and tyre, or story and storey). So it is probably fair to say there is less scope for errors in AmE (American English) than in BrE (British English).
