clever , but...
Your point is not clear...
If I put you in the streets of inner city St. Louis, USA for one day... and then transport you to Birmingham, U.K. for one day... will the English context, pronounciation, meanings, words, vocabulary match exactly?... they are both forms of English.
I assume you don't teach language... if you did you would understand exactly my meaning.
There are several variations of English... and American English has several dialects/forms based on location and culture.
And I NEVER labeled any style of English as "bad"! Where did you get THAT from!? Because that is not from anything that I
wrote.
Add-on... I just thought of a very good example.... native-English speakers chime in if you want.
"Last night I got really pissed"
Good example of different meanings in English.
