And personally, the American English ticks me off. I'm annoyed by Americanzed spelling being used in my school. Which is an Australian school. -____-

Honestly, I don't see why people give a damn about how the words are spelled. They sound pretty much the same, they mean the same thing...what exactly is the problem? I like my American English. Yes, British English is what's taught elsewhere in The word and that's fine. British English just sounds more...right sometimes.
Not that I would use it in normal conversation because, obviously, I've grown up with American English. Either way, slang is slang in any country and when you get down to it, it's the same damn language. Seriously, get the hell over it everyone.
That being said, because I am
AMERICAN, I'm sorry that I can't help you much with English. Although proper English seems to have the same rules wherever you are. Oh well, you can ask me at anytime if you want.
