I learn American English, but I like British accent more. When a British speaks english,it is really interesting to tell the difference from the vowels. especially, An English speaker who speaks in serious attitude. I am really enjoying in listening British accent, and you?

hi~  the reason why i start the new post is I take a British teacher's class these days. at the begining, I really can not totally understand what is he talking about. 2 months later, I get used to his accent and agree that it is a preety good thing to distinguish the difference. for example, sweater: American Eng is sweater; in British, they call it  "jumper". another one is elevator. the British use left instead of elevator. pavement and sidewalk and so on. it is really interesting to keep watch…

I prefer American English to British English.Some British from the North of England or Scotland speak strange English accents, I mean it is difficult to understand thier English.

As a matter of fact, English for International Communication is like American accent very much !!!

I love American accent !
