I actually heard someone say this

why can't people speak american when they come to america?

wouldn't american be spanish, considering most people in the america's speak spanish?

side note. don't use spanish pick up lines on girls from brazil, my defense, very young, very drunk

in US, i guess that what make "English" different!

[phlegm_thrower]

why don't they call it americanese instead of english

and i just wonder why american feel the need to use Z instead of S

eg. apologise=>apologize

isn't it easier to type with S???

Well over here in England, we drive on Streets and Roads, not Parkways and we park "at the curb" or in a parking space...so i dunno wot you're talking about

same here in OZ

i dunno, other languages have masculine, fem, neuter, cases, which make them rough.

Why can't the whole world just speak esperanto?

This name sums up why the English Language is the hardest to learn "Mr. Snufalapagus" (Sesame Street) No disrespect but try going into a 7-11 and no matter what country the clerk is from, ask him to say that, white kids growing up on Sesame Street still can't even say it right. Steve
