English? English! English ...

People from many parts of the English-speaking world have little or no difficulty in understanding one another. Of course, the English language used in different parts of the world differs in many ways. For example, look at the difference between the British and American terms for the same things.

British English	American English
flat	apartment
petrol	gasoline/gas
holiday	vacation

There are also differences in pronunciation and spelling, vocabulary and grammar. Even within Great Britain or America people in different parts of the country express themselves in different ways and have different accents. Here are some more examples:

• Americans say, "I suggest we go there together." The British say, "I suggest we should go there together."
• In Australia they say, "cobber"; in Britain they say, "friend".
• Americans write "color", "favorite", "meter"; the British write "colour", "favourite", "metre".
• In American English "class" and "dance" have the same sound as "man"; in British English it is the same sound as in "park".
• Americans call it "subway", the British call it "underground".

American: elevator British: lift	American: soccer British: football
American: yard British: garden	American: sneakers British: trainers
American: garbage British: rubbish	American: truck British: lorry
American: subway British: underground	American: highway British: motorway
