:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh so true .
This list is a bucnch of British giving the US a hard time for our dialect.
:nono:
English has its roots in German so we are speaking a variant of German anyway.
It was the British Empire that caused the language to go global.
Basically you have failed. Twice!
:elaugh:
Because we don't refer to them like that. Americanisms are fine. . .in America but not in Great Britain. We had enough of that when your soldiers came over here shagging our wives in dubya dubya 2 while we were getting our faces shot off in the trenches!!
I was going to say. Imagine how many Britishisms we could come up with...probably hundreds.
Dumb fucks don't realize how Canadians use many of these terms as well. The list is ignorant and xenophobic. If you don't like America, love it or leave it! Try Canada or some shit.
America, always the one taking the blame for every goddamn wrong on the face of the planet.
The difference is. It's 'our' language! & as far as I am aware Britishisms don't infect the world in the way Americanisms do!
ukey:& even if they did, as I said it's 'our' language so we can do want we want. When you get your own language then feel free to do with it as you will!

My dad speaks a little Swedish and English (his folks both spoke Swedish and Danish and English), and my grandparents on my mother's side spoke fluent German and English, you twit.
I suppose you have the same attitude for all the Pakis that have invaded your land and the bastardization they've made of the English language as well, right? Or is this just a white thing you have, tranny boy?
Get back to your shrink soon. He (or she or IT) need to adjust your meds again.

Mate, you're such a prat:rofl2:
Er, why are you telling me about your heritage? It is irrelevant. This is a discussion about how Americanisms have infected our language.
:2offtopic
& kindly refrain from using such racist terms as 'paki'. People from Pakistan have not 'invaded' our land or 'bastardized' the English language. The word pyjamas in fact has its roots in Hindi so their influence was felt during the days of The British Empire.
& kindly refrain from your pathetic attempts at personal insults. It just makes you look really stupid & infantile.
:ban:
PS - we don't have shrinks in Great Britain. We have Psychiatrists.
A good english word! Well done!

The point is, America is very much a multi-lingual country. Probably a bit more interesting than your island. And since I highly doubt you've been on this side of the pub I doubt you know a whole lot.
:ban:
I have & that is not the issue. The issue is Americanisms infecting the English language as it is spoken here, in its home country. How have you not understood that yet?!? Its fine for you to use them, just stop their infection from spreading over here.
ukey:
In San Francisco, that's a verb! :eek:

Then blame the Hollywood crowd for that, as I suspect much of the stuff that your side has to deal with comes from them. Heck, blame your own people for buying into our culture and all that is exported to your island. You have only yourself to blame if you let outsiders infiltrate your precious culture.

We've developed a different dialect of English than the Brits, same goes with the Aussies and everyone else in the English speaking world.
