Is it normal I think people should only speak American in America?

  • It would have been the English language a hundred years ago, but it has evolved since then and, as stated before, it no longer can qualify as "English". American is nowhere near as vulgar and we don't use such hideous slang. Of course we do use slang, but it's nowhere near as crude or trashy and in general we're a more developed country with better hygiene.

    • It has evolved? How so? Give me an example. Was the word "hello" any different to how you say "hello" now? Or was it just the accent that was different?
      Explain to me how it has evolved, give me examples. Better hygiene? You mean with all those factories that cause polution and whatnot? Afterall, America is bigger and therefor has more factories. So, by that logic, America is less hygienic and is poluting the whole world. So much for hygiene, right? Oh, you mean personal hygiene? You mean like all those homeless, redneck, people and all the prostitutes you have in America? I guess that isn't classed as "vulgar" in your country, right?

      Slang is used mostly by the youth of our country, kids are kids, most of them grow out of it.

      But still. I want those examples of how the Americans "evolved" the English language. If you say something that is basically just saying "the accents" then I'll just have to laugh at you.....even more.

      • Every country has its underclass. I'm sure in England you get your versions of red necks (e.g. street urchins), and prostitutes as well. And what about your poor dental health care and little respect for mouth hygiene? You shouldn't get me started on that. I had to teach a British boy last cemester and every time I saw him I made a note to give him a breath mint.
        And yes, the American language has evolved a lot since we became the world leaders. For a start the way in which words are pronounced. In America we are less likely to drop letters and we have expanded the vocabulary significantly. If I watch British TV I feel physically ill at how much they butcher our language with their trashy slang (and at the state of their teeth.)

        • Yes, we do. But nowhere near as much as your country. We don't as many racists as you do, we don't have as many protitutes as you. Ah, so you're going for the stereotypes now? Typical moron. I like how you get your points off of stereotypes. but, if you want to go down that road, I can go saying stereotypes are true aswell. How about all the obsese Americans? Don't they know physical hygiene? Afterall, most Americans are fat. Don't get me started on that. Everytime I see an American I have to hide my food and cover up every fast food resteraunt with camoflauge.
          Since "We"? Since when did "you" become a world leader? You're so moronic that you think "you're" a world leader. You can't even argue simple points.

          The was words are pernounced? What did I just say? I said that if you said anything that involves accents then I'll just laugh at you.
          What did I ask for? I asked for examples of the vocabulary. You couldn't even do that.

          By the way, yes, I know you're a troll. I just have spare time on my hands today and need some entertainment.

          • You don't have as many racists? What about the "yank" word you use for us? From experience, the British (and Latinos) are the most racist I've encountered.
            Stereotypes stem from truth, darling. And no, I never claimed to be a world leader. I'm just proud to come from the country that is.
            You say I can't argue a simple point? You can't construct a simple sentence.

            • Funny. Out of all the people I've known (I've known alot due to me moving around alot of places in the UK) I have heard someone call an American a yank about two times. During those two times they were never used for an offensive term, they were used for jokes which the American laughed with them.
              They stem from truths do they? So I guess the stereotype that Americans are fat, lazy and stupid has some truth to it? I can definetly see some truth of it from you.

              My grammar isn't perfect but neither is yours. I have seen a few errors from your sentence structure aswell. I'm willing to tell you yours if you tell me mine.
              Funny thing is, by what you said that means that you can't make a simple point to someone that can't construct a simple sentence. That seems to be more of an insult to you than it is to me.

            • You are definitely an idiot! American English is just a dialect which I prefer over British English... also I prefer english over german (I'm german if you couldn't guess that)... also it's damn stupid just to allow chinese people speaking english or acting like American because that is just racist! And as I live in germany I do not mind if anyone speaks another language than german... and you sir should do the same as America is a country of immigration!

              • Your American language skills are horrible. I don't understand what you're trying to say. You think the Chinese shouldn't be allowed to act American then you call me racist?
                Also I refuse to speak the disgusting Mexican language, which is even worse than what the British and Canadians call English. If immigrants don't like that I can't speak their language they should fuck off to their own country. You should do the same.

            • What? Rubbish! ItDuz is way more knowledgeable than you and constructs far better sentences. How were you hired as a teacher? You can't even use proper grammar. There is no way a person can be this empty headed..

    • So you are an American teacher? and you don't realize that Americans speak English not American? Wow, I think the school needs to have you fired.

      If you are not smart enough to figure this out I cant imagine what kind of backwards shit you are teaching the students.

      Oh I feel so sorry for the US for having such an idiot like you teaching. What the fuck are they thinking?

      They need to do a test on teachers since they seem to be letting some unqualified people through. This is just sad. Stop ruining America and get a job where you are not teaching nonsense.
