The US didn't "steal" any languages, the US was settled by the brits, who
what a concept, spoke english! my gosh, I'm surprised they don't have that
in british history books :O Either that or you simply chose to disregard
that to create your petty argument. The same can be said for the
pronunciation of "your" language. if you're going to create a lanuage, at
least pronounce it how you claim it should be pronounced, and don't use the
excuse of "its pronounced funny because of our accents, but we created the
language so we dont have accents and so our accents make it correct". No, no
it is not correct. There are rules to the english language, and 80% of the
time, your accents (yes you do have accents-accents which contradict how
your words are supposed to be pronounced when YOUR country created the rules
for your language) completely disregard that. We may botch the spelling for
a few words here in the US but for the most part, the way americans
pronounce words in the english language is correct. Hell even people from
England will agree other brits have accents you can hardly understand based
on where they live. Don't try to tell me not being able to understand
someone speaking the same language as you is correct simply because theyre
from england, because thats a joke. Now please, all you brits come leave me
hate messages.
