They're mostly the same language. They just have a few variations in structure and word choice. Hell, you can easily learn how to speak both dialects once you master the primary language.

If you live in England, learn British english, if you live in America, learn American English. If you want to pick up chicks and attract plenty of attention, do the exact opposite.
