I'm also confused by the parent comment because it appears that they spelled it in the American way, whereas the OS seems to use the British spelling. If they think the OS will teach people the correct way, evidently they don't spell it correctly.

The original spelling, which follows the same pseudo-Latin convention other chemical names use is: Alumium

All other spellings are from people adding one or more letters because they think it sounds better.

Pffft, nonsense, the only way is the French (as in language) way, just call it alu.

Why use many syllable when few do trick?
