| Aug 17, 2011 at 9:06 | comment | added | Alenanno | @Phoenix: what do you mean by "original"? | |
| Aug 17, 2011 at 9:03 | comment | added | Phoenix | There is only original English and everything that has grown out of it, and no one speaks the original anymore. Least not outside of academics specializing in it. | |
| Aug 17, 2011 at 8:51 | comment | added | user10893 | Very good point, @Phoenix. Are you saying that there is a universal "real English", or just emphasizing that all the dialects are different but mutually intelligible? | |
| Aug 17, 2011 at 8:48 | comment | added | Phoenix | In fact, some southern US dialects are closer to original British English from colonial times than British English is today. See Tangier Island, Virginia for an example. British English has undergone many changes over the years compared to their old colonies, especially from being a world imperial power, where the colonies wouldn't be communicating much amongst themselves but would be exporting the local dialects and slang to the motherland. Also, the Received Pronunciation did a lot to change common British English. | |
