(10 pts) Two Englishes ‘American English is the name given to the form of the language used by the people of the United States.

While American and British Englsh are for the most part recipfocally ineligible, the differences are humerous enough to cause awkward misunderstanding and the occasional breakdown of communication, ‘Some ofthe mast obvious differences are in vocabulary. Many ofthese developed between the mid-19" and the mid-20" centuries, This was a period during which a variety of new concepts arose requiing new words, For example, a large ‘umber of words connected with automobiles and other modem vehicles are diferent in the two forms of Engish.

In the US., they put ‘gas” in their cas, but in the UK, it's “petro.” Americans say “subway" while the Bish say “underground” or “ube. While many of these differences are wellknown in both counties, there is an inequality in the comprehensiblty of “American lerms forthe British, compared wih that of British terms for Americans. The use of many British word, such as ‘semi (em:-detached house) or “busk (to play music in public inthe hope of geting donations from passer-by) is ikely to completely baffle an Amercan. The global populatily of American movies and television shows, onthe other hand, means that few Americanisms are unknown to Bish Engish speakers. Less noticeable, though also numerous, are differences in grammar. The present perfect tense ‘Ive gone” is more ‘commonly heard in British English whereas Americans use the simple pas ‘| went" *Did you eat yet” is anormal question in the U.S. while “Have you eaten yet” isthe only acceptable form for Bish speakers. Collective nouns, singular nouns that describe muliple people, are another point of difference, In British English, they are used with a plural verb: “The family ‘are worried." Americans use them with a singular verb: ‘The family is wore.” 1. Which ofthe following best describes the reading passage? ‘A.
