My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
dilemma: if a girl calls "z" a "zed" can i slap her? does it matter where i slap her?

I use various British curse words pretty regularly, as well as British pronunciation on many other words. British English simply sounds more intelligent.

Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

All hail Britannia!!
For the encyclopedia of Britanica
All hail Britannia!
For Shakespeare and his plays!
All hail Britannia!
For wicked stories like Harry Potter!
British Accent, British phrases!
Poms are the best in the world!
ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!!
The holy and only Britannia!
Mother of Soccer and Rugby!
Father of Cricket and wizzling poms!
We hail to your might
I support the Japanese view![]()
No love for Canadians and our unholy accent of three different nations, imperfectly cooked and thrust onto the world's platter?

Britian would have a far more entertaining image abroad if everyone thought we had a thick yorkshire/welsh/geordie/scouser accent instead of posh, charming and polite one.. would have improved Friends and Fraiser IMO!
In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!
er's truth t'be 'ad in 'at air sen'ince, oy tell ye.
Walk into any bar in s.e. asia, or the old 70's NATO nations, where some Yank is holding court. A Brit with a broad yorkie/welsh, etc accent walks in... de wimmins desert de Yank an' flock to the feller with the broad a's. Been there done that. In a different life in another universe (Honey).
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
You know nothing about culture!

You might very well say that. I couldn't possibly comment on that...
Which is famous catchphrase of an old BBC series. A bit akin to American phrases like 'Hasta la vista, baby!'
Which goes to show that the real difference is not in semantics or spelling, but in the use of language.
