samerrustomDo American usually use eg abbreviation instead of ex for example?
I don't believe it's just Americans. I always use "e.g.," for "for example".

I don't think "ex" is ever correctly used to mean "example" or "for example" (with the possible exception of texting on your phone, but we don't do texting here).
