Answer 1

do you remember the battle of hastings?

Answer 2

You didn't ask a question, but if you had my amswer would have been:

I agree that some varieties of British English are the most elegant-sounding accents. That doesn't make it better. And it makes little sense to say it is "older"--the first Americans were British, and had basically the same language history as the Brits who stayed in the UK.

Answer 3

I do agree with you. Nevertheless, English is the mother's toungue for English and it's also the native language in England.

Answer 4

British English reflects the British way of life (you fill in the blank) while American English reflects our way of life: rugged, independent, versatile, self-reliant, confident, and free from monarchy.

Oh, and by the way, there's no "i" in the last syllable of aluminum. Cocky limey.

Answer 5
