I can in part vouch for this since my American nephew once told me that when he mentioned his forthcoming visit to England one of his young friends asked him what language we speak

I can certainly understand that. I'm not in that category as I learned all about England when I was young. This doesn't include the map I have of England and Dragons.





See ? We all know about England. With regards to the English Language, I have tried to teach you all I know which took me all of about five minutes. No worries, we'll work on it.
