Mum: An incorrect way of typing "mom," however the British people are deluded enough to believe that this is the actual spelling.

Please go and see every other English-speaking country, even if it is a joke.

He would, but his Mom wont let him.

How about I give you brief history of the English language:

After the Romans left Britannia(Modern day England), the Germanic Tribes invaded, successfully. Britannia was then renamed Engaland - meaning Land of the Angles. The language was called Englisc, again more to do with the Angles and the German suffix -isc, like we have -ish today. Englisc was what we call "Old English" and holds the roots of Late Modern English words. The Germans got kicked out by the French in 1066 by William The Conqueror, who with French and Englisc, created Middle English, also turning Englisc into English. Early Modern English was a change in pronounciations - the new language allowed the British to have contact with many people in the world. Spelling, grammar and the English dialect came into use in 1604. Finally, there's Late Modern English - the new words and spellings came into place due to the Industrial Revolution's inventions needing new names and because of the British Empire covering a quarter of the world's surface - the English had adopted to many foreign words and started changing the spellings of Early Modern English to the language what we are now speaking.

Before Americans complain about the foreign languages meaning Mom is correct:
America didn't have words similiar to "Mom" before the British colonised the East Coast, with the word Mum, which was then spread over what we now the United States of America.
As well, Mum is a Englisc root.

Therefore, the Angles(The British), have the correct speaking of the English language.

Wild fact:
George Washington was going to change the American language to something other than English - but instead, he stole it and decided to change a few spellings and claimed it original.

That's all a myth. Haven't you ever read the Bible? 100% accuracy there with 100% more reliable citations, and those citations come from God. END OF DISCUSSION I WIN
