United StatesSelling on amazon.com
American English, dollars and a country that weighs in pounds and ounces day to day. A British listing needs its spelling turned around, not just its prices.

What has to change
- American spelling: "color", "gray", "aluminum". "Aluminium" is not just spelled differently, it has one more syllable.
- The product is usually a singular "kitchen scale", where a British listing says "kitchen scales".
- The US uses pounds and ounces in everyday life. A 5 kg capacity is about 11 lb, and showing both costs a few characters.
What a translator gets wrong
A UK listing pasted across because it is already English. "Colour" and "aluminium" mark it as written abroad before anyone reads the bullets.
The same title, both ways
