The language is doing fine here. And you have the choice of using your own. Are you now saying that every country has ruined their language? How much do you know about languages?

It's the same language, idiot! And the US is so bloody 'in your face' and domineering that children grow up thinking that's the way the language is.
Tsk tsk VT, You're ruining my language with your name calling. I'll have to ask the children to cover their ears when you're speaking.

What´s your favourite writer of British English ?

Mine is Chesterton (G.K.), he sounds quaint and relaxed.
I can feel a kind person behind the text and this puts my mind and my soul at rest.
I have such a huge volume of his collected writings that I will not be able to read them all before I die, I suppose.
