Well there is the "Queen's English" (standard English language as written and spoken by educated people in Britain.) Then there is English that the commoners in England speak. Then there is English spoken by educated people in Canada. And if we continue we can find English spoken in USA, Australia, etc etc and they all speak their own variety of English.

I do understand your frustration. In the same manner I find it frustrating that when people refer to the dollar, Americans think we MUST be referring to the US$ as they find it hard to believe there is any other kind of currency with the same name they have claimed

 

Then there's Filipino English, dis and dat

 

England was more of a 'super thief' than a super power - just robbed other nations of goods and people. There was never a 'Great' Britain and never will be - it is only arrogance that keeps the elite thinking it is.

 

Crikey! Ya cheeky Sod! lol

 

What's the connection between a super power and English, don't understand your convoluted thinking. Anyway, at least we were an Empire not just part of it. when you have an empire intead of an idiot for a President you can claim English to be yours, until then get over yourself.

 

I didn't object to FB using American English as you correctly referred to it, they didn't.
