I agree that quixotic should be pronounced the Spanish way, but I can’t find any evidence the standard pronunciation is uniquely American. I never hear people say “nitch” in the states, most are capable of saying “neesh”. And foy-er/foy-yay is kinda interchangeable, I hear both, doesn’t really bother me though.
