Since we all speak English in America, occasionally we will use words that originated in (gasp)... England.
So, do continue to play your silly, childish games. I am quite sure that you will find other words that I will inevitably use that you can find etymologically originated in England since I use English in my daily communiques.
Oh, shit!!! I now used an etymologically French word!! Now you start calling me French.
Sacre Bleu!"
No, fella.
You guys use the slang we bloo'y Yanks come up with (which can be rather 'ill' at times hearing one of y'all Chavs saying "that ssit not be def, yo"), but we can't be arsed to even watch Brit stuff on the tele, so we don't know (nor care to) your slang. Plus its kinda weird hearing it Stateside, innit?
AKA when I 'ave te look up a word to see what it means and the definition says "in England..." that means that's cuz we ain't been hearing it here like evuh, mkay, guv'nuh?
Of course that just means you live on that side of ye olde pond, where Britspeak shows as the norm on your interwebz. So you prolly don't live in the UK after all, as you indicated last month. [winks in you know what I mean]
