A lot of American English is actually old English that they’ve held on to and we’ve changed.
Wicked smile.
Traditional English 🇬🇧
Simplified English 🇺🇸
Why yes chaps, only we Brits speak the correct English!

“Offence”
Less letters , Color , Labor , etc ? Real time saver.

Offence is spelled with a ‘c’. (I used ‘spelled’ to differentiate it from ‘spelt’ – the grain)
I can accept English vs American English.
What really grinds my gears is when it’s English vs British English…
Do Spanish speakers in the states speak American Spanish? I know the French look down on French Canadian speakers but I don’t know if the French looking down on anyone counts
Born in America, scouse parents. Been in the UK 20 years now, still have a mixed accent, some things just stick, some don’t.
Gonna spam my boyfriend with this in retaliation for him teasing me for the way certain words (not all) – tomato, yoghurt, water to name few.
Aluminium not aluminum football not soccer Boot not trunk Lift not elevator
I’ve been threatening to get him a basket full of all the words he tries to get me to say “properly”.

You underestimate the intelligence of average Americans.
There’s traditional and simplified English, you take a guess
Sort of agree but Spanish from Spain sounds very strange in most of the mainland to the majority of the Spanish speak diaspora so the colonies speak something similar to “original Spanish” or queens English. Even the Canaries and south still speak it the more neutral accent on the whole. Then again I’m not Spanish.
Queen was from German heritage with a Scottish clan aristocrat for a mother.
The purge is coming peasants
i thought england got taken over by vikings and thats how they got nordic germanic base for the structure…
So there is norse, and there are all the sub divisions they actualy speak in Scandinavia, yes they speak, english.
Sorry bro, but UK english is it’s own language.
Bri’ish?
Wa’her?
Tellie?
Cassle?
Wintah?
Nah bro, not the same language. Either that or you guys can’t even pronounce the words right. Don’t tell me it’s an accent, you guys just destroy your own language, and don’t get me started on the whole cockney thing. I got zero problems understanding an American speaking, Bri’ishes on the other hand kinda require subtitles.
