Yes! or eKcetera. Love that one too.

@@spockboy I also absolutely despise exec-speak, especially when they've no idea what the word means. I've heard of 'Paradigm modeling' (Paradigm means 'Model'), and of course 'Quantum leap' - a term so widely misused the Oxford English Dictionary now has the definition of Quantum as both large and small.

Did anyone ever "ax" you a question? 😅

They want to be more like the ocean, waving at inopportune moments.

@@YellinInMyEar Yeh those people I want to answer with an axe.

Full stop.

Yep. 'Period' is menstruation over here. We have to try not to snigger.

telt...

Not 'an enemies' but an 'anemone". Obvious

...and things like "so fun" instead of 'so much fun' or ''so funny'. And "would of", "could of" and "should of" instead of 'would've' (would have) etc. etc. Dumb lot!

Haitch sadly seems to be on the increase, particularly in the north of England. “So” drives me bonkers.

Their version of ALUMINIUM always gets me

@@stevefowler3398 Along with the luxury British car its Jag-u-ar NOT Jag-wah. We build the things so our pronunciation is the correct one.

We try to remove the extra letters to clean the language up a bit. You lot are a bit sloppy with them.

@@majcrash Rich from the country that spells the word "now" as "A.T. T.H.I.S. T.I.M.E." :-)

The irony here is that in the vast majority of cases its because the British used to spell the word that way and then changed their minds, where as Americans kept the old spelling.

The Ghanaian ice cream seller?

@@TristanJCumpole 😂👍

Oh dear!!! 🤣🤣

🤣😂😂😂🤣

Frankensteins monster actually. Victor never wore honkers like that. ( jk 😂)

And don't forget, we say JAGUAR yanks say JAGWAR, and the over used word to describe a lot of things, the word BUNCH. I heard a mechanic say there is a bunch of air in the break line. a female cook say we need a bunch of water and a bunch of lemon juice. FFS.

Or Calcum?

@@kwakgreen I have heard quite frequently is... JAGWIRE...aaaahggg... I'm quite sure if we spend long enough we will not run out...however their spelling of things at times can change the meaning of things like MOLD for MOULD...Mold is a town in Flintshire...the other is green and a sign of decay!!...don't get me started

I don't mind that one so much as both spellings are recognised by IUPAC.

Ohhhhh!!! I can't bear that one!!! 😅

"Mac...Donalds"

“Muckhappyfuckinmeal,” isn’t it? Extra cholesterol, and make it snappy. Be sure the Mcfries are McHot or I’ll McShoot you.

Is that Mc Donalds or Mac Donalds or something equally banal..? 😄😄😄

Now now behave

Here we pronounce it "Tucker Fuckers".

I hate it when someone says they'll learn me something 😖It's like nails on a chalkboard

too much of playing Pool...too much of rack and run.

I say loo-tenant. That’s how it is spelt.

That’s so you can distinguish it from the rightenant.

The majority of differences between our dialects is that you fuckers changed your minds later.

They are to scared to make fun of democrats

Comedians talk about the current POTUS all the time. I've seen him fall off that bike and up the stairs countless times.

Wanjers, yes censorship

What the hell is potus,sounds like something to relieve a boil

@@rebeccagriffin1449 hahahahaha! Maybe it is! President Of The United States (POTUS)

that's pretty good conservation of energy, and pen ink haha

And in yet one more way Australia is bigger than Texas, we say 'javagoodweegend' instead of did you have a good weekend. (Just joshung you Texas :-)

@@sinkhole777 its okay, and a funny reply.

@@sinkhole777 the djeet and javagoodweegend are because of the people there being working class. It's not just Texans or Australians only. Upper and middle class don't say djeet or javagoodweegend.

And Secretary becomes secutary.

its him-mah-lay-ah

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well, it is spelled aluminum, not aluminium.

​@@nephicus339 actually it is spelt aluminium

@@nephicus339it is spelt aluminium, which is consistent with the majority of the chemical elements.

Oh noooooo!

You think that's bad, go look up 'Literally' It now means literally, and not literally, at the same time.

@@nephicus339 Yep!! These things annoy me so much, I "literally" die, every time 🙄🙈😅😅 Glad I'm not the only one, that gets annoyed by all these lazy ways of speaking!!

. . . and "fulsome" . . . for goodness' sake. Although, to be honest, I love it when some fool tells us someone deserves our "fulsome praise", thinking they are passing a compliment

@@DustyDingoPhotos Am I looking in the wrong dictionary? ful·some adjective 1. complimentary or flattering to an excessive degree. 2. of large size or quantity; generous or abundant.

They do say that '' fools seldom differ'' ...

What about General Jack D. Ripper and the 'commie preverts' fluoriding the water supply?

Who isn't more respectable than Bush?

That depends on what part of the US the person you're talking to is from; some places actually shorten it even farther to "scratch it" or just "scratch". :P

Horseback riding, is there another way?

Yes we should make fun of the Americans at every opportunity. Many, like you, are devoid of a sense of humour.

"but this American must protest. What you were ridiculing here is not standard American English." and he agreed with that before you said it. He mentioned an American woman and Bush but many of different countries people would pronounce it Bush's way. Pick a country of the world and you'll find some pronounce it bush's way and some in the same country pronounce it the way Billy said. The false title made you think of it a brit VS American way. Only 2% romano brit dna exist there. Billy has no brit dna like most people living there. He's not into religious cults or monarchy families. He didn't mention brit vs american. He might say 'spot on' but mostly doesn't.

Perhaps you mean 'evlushun'?

I'm surprised they haven't shortened it to evoing or just straight up evo

@@scottw.3258 Haha, yeah! 🤣

Australia is the same, or should I say Aussie ? 😉🤣🤣🤣

@@Cykoid They've shortened it to *_"myth."_* Can't having something that contradicts the Buy Bull. 😎

I rant when someone says some asshole rather than arsehole.

It tickles me when people get so irate over "bastardisation" of idioms... Obviously, you know what people mean when they say, "I could care less" (else you wouldn't be so salty), so that variant of the idiom serves its purpose and thus cannot be "incorrect". Also, since when have idioms ever been characterised as purely logical phrases meant to be interpreted literally? You know what annoys me, personally? People talking out their arse.

@@93runninggiraffes I couldn't care less 😉

He's no longer President. He may run again, though, since the dimmest Americans are willing to overlook his catastrophic failure and attempted coup.

George W. and Churchill? W.‘s speaking abilities would desert him altogether if he were in a room with Churchill. The Diddy.

@@musicalmagpie741 Note that I used the phrase "compared to". I was not implying that George W. had any eloquence. My point was that we currently have a drooling senile vegetable in the oval office, which leaves us yearning for the good old days of W., who, for all his faults, could at least string a comprehensible sentence together (most of the time).

@@heatchills4093 Point taken and understood. It really wasn’t meant as a dig towards you. More George W. However, not being American I’m going to put my hands in the air, back off and not start a vicious thread on the comment section.

Billy despised Trump. It's apparent in one of his travel shows pre-criminal presidency. Whilst I cannae speak for him, he'd be a Bernie man.

“The King’s Speech” wasn’t a documentary.

Thought that was the Spaniards??

Cry harder.

@@MachiavellisThePrince The rest of the world calls it 'Simple English'.

@@wessexdruid7598 It would need to be simple for Americans.
