more amusing listening to them trying to pronounce words

apparently it is vee hickle

likewise with 'Or regga no' - though they do at least pronounce the state as we pronounce the herb

and it is herb, not 'erb.... as in Herbert Hoover, Herbie Hancock, herbicide etc

many of the mispronunciations are relatively new, as with anteyetank gun asnd it is not Dem eye Moore, hemeyesphere nor Anteyefa

but at least they do have the World Series Rounders

My missus doesn't say those words in that manner. She may just be hiding it though. I'll try to catch her out and report back.

That awful pseudo Californian glottal drawl that younger British females have started to use, in the mistaken belief it makes them sound brighter.
All it proves, young lady, is that you’ve binged on a load of mindless American junk on Netflix when you should have been studying.

Altho the latter is an earlier form of the word, deriving from alum.

I've only recently realised that when one of those big tech support people say they are going to reach out to you, they just mean they are talking to you, they are not making a grand gesture to overcome a disagreement!

Not just spelling.

Pop into a bar in the USA and ask for a growler and then double fist it.

I was driving along one day, half listening to 'Woman's Hour', when an American woman came on and described herself as a 'rider'. I idly wondered whether she would be talking about horses or bicycles. Turned out that she is a rider of poetry.

I wish they'd re-introduce the letter 'T'.
