Plan B Forum

It's the only choice and I speak American English.

Whatever am I to do?

You'll just have to learn to speak all proper like what we do.

You'll be able to pick up a bag of 'u's at the door to put into words like colour...

There was an interview on the BBC World News on NPR last night with a train engineer from the UK who was retiring after a long career.

I could not understand a word he said. British English!

Maybe he was the guy who announced the arrivals and departures.

They are trained to be incomprehensible.

No doubt, on retirement, it’s a hard talent to lose.

But I can just imagine the conversations he has with the missus. Neither having a clue what the other is saying and in many cases, not aware the other was speaking.




What’s that lov?

I'll see if I can add Americanese to the list.

But every time I do something, I screw something else up, and have to get RB to fix it.

Anyone know where there is a sale on u's?

Har har. Perhaps it should be British English, American English and Anti-American English?

:twisted:

@w is also enjoying the expanded selection of smilies, I see!

I thought I checked for this thread before I started mine

I don't know about a bag of "u's' but we will definately have to work on dropping the "r's".
