The Dominant Language On This Board Is British English

American culture

We have a culture? Just kidding, I wanted to be first to say it.

To quote Izzard infront of an American audience:

"I'm from Europe, where history comes from."

.I will not change my writing (American style) to accomodate any ones Forum or "rules" or whatever.

Reading your post just raised my blood pressure. Glad I don't live in New York!

Sorry if it offends you, but its true, why should i? just because most people here are Brits or what not, and because most of the english written here is Brit, why should I an AMERICAN start writing brit english?

I was just taking the piss anyway. Speak your bloody Yank babble for all I care.

I'm from Europe, where history comes from.

And they say Americans are arrogant.

Bloody Yank babble? Good God man I thought you were American, Jingthing? If you're such an Anglophile why not get your ass over to England, mate?

[Jimjim]

Another Izzard-ism:

"I America, you say erb. In Britain, we say herb because it's got a <deleted> 'h' in it."

By jove, I find it a jolly idea. Does this mean we can bathe less frequently and skip going to the dentist?

"Herb" (if you pronounce the H) in NY slang means, queer, nerd, gay, pussy etc etc..... I hope this thread does not turn into a "America Vs Brit" thing...cause yall will lose...

Good on you.

For as the old song says:

New York

New York

If you can't get a stress-related myocardial Infarction there

You can't get one anywhere!

You're from NY and you say "yall" instead of "youse"?

[PeaceBlondie]

Latin was not the mother tongue of Europe. Indo-Aryan, the mother of Iranian and Slavic and German, and Latin, and maybe Norse languages, was. Wow, the arrogance that prevails on the western edge of a half-continent and a small island on its west coast.

Since this seems to have degenerated into not only a flame fest but general nasty and abusive behavior towards all and sundry, and is so far from thailand and board related as one can get....
