How to speak the kings english?

Should this all consist of running in circles?

How many more laps coach? infinity?

Oh, how silly and inconsiderate of us. We have nothing better to do all day than to sit, with breath abated, waiting for some vague and ambiguous question to be asked, so that we can leap to conclusions about what it's supposed to mean.

What king would that be, by the way? I'm sure Queen Elizabeth would be bemused by that question.

Perhaps it's English as spoken in Kings County (AKA Brooklyn).

What's it to ya?

Now do you know that's not King's County, Virginia--you geographical bigot . . .

I am exposed.

And damn, it's chilly to be doin' that!

Yeah . . . and Region might get pissed, too . . .

Is Region anything like Religiom?

Yes, but horribly foreshortened . . .

I believe proper "King's" English largely involves stuffing one's self up their own ass whilst making up funky new ways to say old words in order to impress the French.

Or maybe I'm thinking about Jersey and Reality TV Viewers.

I believe he refers to King James English.

Here is the classIcial way of speaking KJE:

I know. My post was a joke, oristarA.

This is false. The current expression should properly be the Queen's English, because the monarch is currently a woman, Queen Elizabeth II. There is precedent for this, as well. Writing in 1600, Shakespeare refers to "the Queen's English." The monarch in 1600 was a woman, Queen Elizabeth. The language is, in this phrase, spoken of as the possession of the monarch, in the sense of guardianship, or trusteeship. Therefore, it is only the King's English when the monarch is a man. It is generally taken to be English as it is spoken by an educated person in the south of England, and in particular, in the home counties, outside metropolitan London (where no one can be sure whose English is being spoken).

I say, old bean... Bob's your uncle.

Fortunately, i speak the American language. I am greatly entertained, too, by the response of Brit's to the use of the expression "the American language."

Close ! Replace "educated" with "privileged" and that's a reasonable description. Nowadays, speaking with that accent can have negative social consequences.
