I could do something like this, but "aluminium" is not an American English word. American English actually changes the spelling to "aluminum". We don't mispronounce "aluminium". There is an actual word difference there. It's not about pronunciation, like a lot of British folks believe. Our word for it is precisely ALUMINUM.
