(Not on High Horse)
Australians are British also.
If you mean the United Kingdom, England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, the way you tell the difference between us form the UK and those from down under, is we don't have rust marks on our wrists n ankles. :|
Well as for spelling, grammar and anything that is 'the English language' orientated, it seems to be getting replace by a new dialect, trash slang.
Words like, wud, choons, wuld, fink, nuffink, nothfink, sed and zed are to mention a few, I might trawl the chat rooms at Yahoo later and get a pile more, UK rooms are where in my opinion the most uneducated, loser layabouts, that have no respect for themselves anyone else or the beloved English language visit.
some 'think tank' 3 years from now will blame the internet for the lack of education amongst the juniors and try close it down. The internet is blamed for all the excuses overpaid PC idiots can think up.
