I have an application which I would like to localise, however i need to support two flavours of English, one for the British edition and another for the US. In particular the word "Synchronize / Synchronise) is cause me headaches. Interface builder only seems to give me English.

Make sure that your project has an en.lproj (or English.lproj, but en.lproj is recommended). Place into it a copy of each localized item in a version suitable for those who express a preference for English, but not a preference for US vs British English. Then you may optionally create language variant .lprojs, for example en_GB.lproj or en_US.lproj, and place items in there that will override the generic versions in en.lproj. The generic en.lproj should have a copy of each item, but the specific en_*.lprojs need not--only those items that need overriding need to be there.
