Like this a lot, alphabetical order helps.

The only quibble is the classic "British for ..." misnomer. "British" is not a language; the UK speaks English. It's a French loanword anyway, but "What the British call ..." would suffice I'd say.

Yeah, I thought about that for sure. It was more an aesthetic choice – I wanted all of the clues to fit on one line. For one reason or another, it just wasn't working. But let me tinker with it and hopefully I can make the change. Thanks for the feedback!
