this is the United States's National Institute of Technology (NIST) reproduction of the International System of Units (SI) standards. It clearly says that amps measure current. Amperage isn't technically a word. It is like guesstimate, it is only defined in the dictionary because it is used so often.
Amperage is most commonly measured in amps. What you have said is essentially "Length isn't a real word, meters is".
