The schism, or split, between American and British spelling dates from the earliest dictionaries published in the US. Noah Webster (1928) and others adopted spellings from other languages and modified how English terms were spelled and pronounced. In many cases, British forms were adopted from the Norman (Anglo-French) spellings, and differ from American forms where these spellings did not match the predominant pronunciation. (see link)
