You have NO idea of the academic study of the English language, hence your ignorance about what an 'accent' and a 'dialect' are. Realise that you are out of your depth when debating with me,
Is it really that hard to type the name of the dictionary where you read your definition of accent and dialect? Being my intellectual superior, I'm sure you have several dictionaries memorized...
The cowardly, jewhating Americans didn't declare war on Germany - Germany declared war on the USA!
Really? Because what I was always told (along the the rest of the world who buys into this American revisionist crap), it was the Japanese that attacked Pearl Harbor, prompting FDR and Congress to declare war, and Hitler was always a little miffed at his ally for bringing the US into the conflict.
when Russia entered the war. The cowardly, jewhating Americans
You like pointing out when others fail to respond to your arguments; would you care commenting on the virulent anti-semitism as practiced in Russia and much of the former Soviet bloc, as I pointed out earlier?
We borrowed money from the US to rebuild our shattered country - and that was only repaid 2 years ago. Yep, American capitalism is great, isn;t it
What do you want me to say? I'm sorry your country was closer to Germany, and that Hitler bombed the hell out of London and other cities? Geography is our fault too? Next time, we'll lend you country billions of dollars and let you pay us back over centuries instead of decades? What argument are you even trying to make here?
For your information: it has been decided by academics that over 50% of major inventions in the world were invented by British people.
Can you name just one of these academics, instead of simply asserting that they exist?
and yes, we did stop slavery and spread democracy, decency and the rul of law around the world - with the support of those in Asia and Africa actually in our great and benevolent Empire. Your Black history nonsense history is another great big fat obese American lie.
So, that whole thing with Gandhi liberating India=American lie; Boer and native South African hatred of the British=American lie; Palestinian conflicts during and after British occupation of the area=American lie; Hong Kong wanting independence for decades=American lie....what others should I add to the list?
ALL British! Read it and weep, oh ignorant one
Typically, when only two items are listed, "both" would be considered more appropriate than "all"--but we've already addressed your counting deficiencies.
"WWW: I thought this was Al Gore?" Tim Berners-Lee actually. Al Gore is the fat liar from the American upper class who bought his place in your dumb history in your dumb and corrupt country.
I see your sense of humor is decidedly un-British, as well.
That is just your American lie. The phone was invented by Bell.
Again, proof is always exciting. And Bell was Scottish; generally, they are not hugely enamored with the English and are only a part of Britain because of the "spread of liberation" they were forced to accept through centuries of warfare.
EDISON INVENTED NOTHING AT ALL! Joseph Swann invented the light bulb (he was British, y'know). Edison stole and refined the idea and sold the product - he invented SWEET F ALL!
Not to sound repetitive, but the mention of a source would be great.
Flight: "the rest of the world basically agrees it was the Wright brothers; I'd be interested to see your evidence."
The first flight was in the UK - by an eccentric inventor in a huge shed; the Wright Brothers came after that so the achievement is wrongly attributed to them, but they did do the first flight outside. Not the first flight though.
That's not evidence, and again, the international community disagrees with you. Besides, flying indoors isn't exactly useful, is it?
Now run along sonny and read some REAL books
Give me their titles and I'll head off to the library.
