Haha, thank you MrP.
Now, before I let people discuss the British v. American case I'd like to state that:

I haven't changed my mind.
I don't walk topless around either French or Polish beach.
I don't have French accent, I have my own, I was occasionally mistaken for French in England for inexplicable reasons by people who hadn't got a clue I was unable to pronounce a single French word.

Tullulah Tam, many thanks, that's what I thought, too. A twin bed for a single, that's weird! Isn't a twin bed in UK, a one that you can unzip and make two singles from it?Smile [:)]

Greetings to all. L.

I'm american so I would know.

Sucks means something you hate, it's sort of like the word stinks.

Freakin is used a lot where I live, and it actually is the equivalent to bloody but it's not profanity unless you use it as a cover up for f###ing.

Cool just means you are a popular person or you like the thing you are talking about.

Oh and the accent thing, i don't care about that because i have to live with southern (my own accent), northern, and asian accents. It drives you crazy(mad)!!!!!! just like the fact that people here are muts. im part british, irish, scotish, french, native american, italian, portueges( crap I spelled it wrong), appalachian, ducth, slovenian, and the list just goes on (except i'm not asian).

this country is just Smart, stupid, interesting, and mainly open minded

oh and one more thing, if you ever hear the phrase oh snap laugh youre ass off it is the dumbes thing a person can say anywhere.

the typos in this message is not my fault my brothers annoying.............really annoying.Super Angry [8o|]

I personally don't think there's a "better" English between British and American English. They're just different, and I don't say that to be politically correct or unneccesarily diplomatic. Generally speaking, British-English sounds more posh, whereas American-English sounds more natural, at least to my ear. Both have their good points... and bad.  Stick out tongue [:P]

I agree with what cloud wrote, thats exactly how i say those words and i am too american. 

Though, the english/british accent is my all time favorite accent and i just love listening to them say different things so please tell me how u guys say the words terror, school, and terrorist.  It would be greatly appreciated. 

That was just my input. -massachusetts girl

Hello, Smile [:)]

I am an American .And I have found that the Amercan english has deteriorated. even Among professional telivision personalities. IE:News casters have even began to become rather loose in pronunciation. back in the day, newscasters spoke very eloquently. I was under the impression that American professional anouncers and newscasters were required to have taken elocution lessons.

PS: It is my opinion that the British Speak english as is was meant to be spoken.more American people should watch the BBC News. and perhaps we could develop a better form of the english language.
