American English is nice and simple...the British need to live up during this era...not "Her Majesty's" era.

dude i talk like an Essex girl
where did "her majesty" come from?

I don't know what that sounds like. But I think English people say her majesty or w/e.

nope

Wow. I just learned from my friend a British billion is an American trillion.

You Brits are crazy.

Should single entities composed of multiple beings be plural? In British English, they are. For example, in American English, New Horizons is. In British English, New Horizons Are.

LOL

They also say "Maths"

I think in England they named the Tea Party, the Beer Party....family guy is always right!

I think maths makes more sense.

Why?

Or Math is derived from Arithmetic and Maths is derived from Mathematics.

I thought it could be used either way. If you're talking about new horizons, it's are. If you're talking about New Horizons the site, 'it' should be after NH because it's one thing and not multiple things.

British people say "Jolly Good" ...but jolly just means fat...

They also say anti-clockwise instead of counterclockwise.

Blimey! What's wrong with 'em, eh?

Yeah...Blimey lol...it sounds stupid too.

I meant when talking about single entities.

Oh. I misread. My bad.

No, it's your good.

It truly is your good.
