England and America are two countries separated by the same language.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The biggest difference between England and America is that England has history, while America has geography.
Everyone thinks England and America are the same, as we have the same language, but I felt like an alien as an English person living in America.
Why on earth do we want closer connection with England? We have little in common with English people except our language. We are fast becoming an entirely different people.
England as a culture has endured so much more than America has as a culture, so it's given them a different perspective.
I love English, though I now call it 'Anglo- American' because we no longer speak British English due to globalization and America's economic power.
When people say England, they sometimes mean Great Britain, sometimes the United Kingdom, sometimes the British Isles, - but never England.
If anything, there's a difference in working with color in England and the color in the US.
I think Brits probably feel that Americans are more like us than vice-versa, if that makes sense. Because we get everything American over here in Britain, but yet there are things which are staunchly English that you guys don't have.
My opinion is that more languages you speak, better it is, but when you come to America, you speak English.
Everyone in America thinks I'm American - and everyone in England seems to think I'm American.
