Yeah, it's always happened. For instance, in England we used to say Fall for the season until the French told us it was Autumn! This is a fun clip: https://youtu.be/H3r9bOkYW9s?si=KPrjVm4VUJDEMv9G

Really? So, fall isn't originally an American word at all? Of course, the Americans have kept a lot of older words from English. Thanks for the funny and informative clip.
