help, Thanks!

Americans are stupid and British are smart. :wink:

I am reminded of a pot and a kettle.

Regional accents develop within countries, never mind between nations separated by thousands of miles of ocean. Therefore, just as accents and commonly used expressions vary from one region of England, or of the United States, to another--so the accents and commonly used expressions differ as between England and the United States.

A significant difference is in spelling. This page (click here) gives a biography of Noah Webster. Webster was a school teacher in the United States, who felt that American children should be given a simplified spelling for words in what was as much their language as it was anyone else's language. Therefore, Americans write "center," "color," "humor" and "honor" when the English write "centre," "colour," "humour" and "honour." However, for all the slighting remarks the English may make, they have adopted some of the simplified spellings which Webster proposed. For example, all people in the English-speaking world write "magic" rather than "magick," and "music" rather than "musick."

Americans actually speak English. The Brits on the other hand, speak some unintelligible language yet to be deciphered...

There are a number of differences between American and British English. The web site that I have listed will give you an idea of some of the differences.

The Americans and the British like to tease each other, about the realtive intelligence of the two groups of people. The British are sore losers, and are still mad that the Americans broke away from the empire in 1776.

This is me...y'all. Waylon Jennings was the official spokesman for our dialect.


Midland & Highland
South Midland or Highland Southern

This dialect arose in the inland areas of the South. It shares many of the characteristics of dialects of the Appalachians and Ozark Mountains. The area was settled largely by Scots-Irish, Scottish Highlanders, persons from the North and Western Parts of England and Wales, Germans, and has retained a number of elements of Elizabethan English (the language spoken by Shakespeare).

This dialect follows the Ohio River in a generally southwesterly direction, moves from Kentucky, across Missouri and Oklahoma, and peters out in western Texas. This is the dialect most associated with truck drivers on the CB radio and country music. It has assimilated some coastal Southern forms, most noticeably the loss of the diphthong /aj/, which becomes /A:/, and the second person plural pronoun "you-all" or "y'all". Unlike Coastal Southern, however, South Midland is a rhotic dialect, pronouncing /r/ wherever it has historically occurred.

It is we (the English/British) who speak English, hence why it it is called English. you yankyboys have made up a new language and claim to be speaking English.

The US and the UK are the only two countries separated by a common language
