Matthew Engel, writing on the BBC News Site has managed to live up to the standards I'd expect of someone complaining about grammar and words. Here is his list of Americanisms he feels are creeping into good old British English:

• Faze, as in "it doesn't faze me"
  
• Hospitalize, which really is a vile word
  
• Wrench for spanner
  
• Elevator for lift
  
• Rookies
