    We say it the original correct way in the US

    .

    Sir Humphrey Davy named it “Alumium”

      I explained the whole naming process. You gotta read it. The US was given the name as Aluminum and did not change it when the British changed it a third time.

        But aluminum is nit the original name and you explain that. It’s also not the correct way either.
