I prefer to think of it in this way: If a Brit asked an American for a torch, he'd be surprised to get a burning bundle of sticks. While an American might (at least I would) call that torch a flaming faggot, a Brit would think a flaming faggot was a burned meatball made of pork.

Yeah... American dialect is very different from British dialect. But the language is still English.
