since I am not from britiain, even though I have family who did come from scottland and ireland, I know nothing about the other languages on the island that you talk about. Like American english and british english, are those other languages a branch of english, meaning do they use the same principles of the language and similar words, or are they completly different from english. And just out of curiosity, when I went to Europe and talked to europeans who were non english native speakers, they mentioned that they can always tell the difference between someone from england and america because we talk through our nose a lot and we talk supposvely very fast. Is that a justifiable assumption. <p></p><i></i>
