hola

I hate how Americans never say thank you.

americans are literally over polite, what the fuck are you talking about

la cucaracha, la cucaracha~

Knew not just one but multiple people that used idea and ideal interchangeably, as in "I had an ideal"

nucular

brits say i have an idear

>Aluminum

At least they use the correct pronunciations for French loan words, unlike the British.

That's just how they pronounce it though, they aren't actually using the wrong word like these retards

This word should be banned.

"I'll have a medium, not a large for me my dude" *is handed a 21" pizza*

Pick yourself up by the bootstraps

All Germanics do that.

ain't nobody

I could of care less

What's wrong with "rember"? Isn't it like that in British English, too?

Nobody says it that way though

I think he's trying to write Canadian English /'skwɝəl/.

>What's wrong with "rember"?
Ever looked it up in a dictionary?

> be me
> I can eat a lot.
> buys medium drink
> it's literally four pints
> o-okay dad

This actually trips me up when ordering.

"Nucular"

what are deisel, pharoah and rember?

>spake the baiter

I try to pronounce words closer to the way they should be than the bastardized way most people (around here) say them, but the one that always still fucks me up is "comfortable", the common bastardized way is nowhere close to how the word is written, but saying it the way it's spelled just sounds wrong and unnatural somehow

wen day is dark alway rember happy day

Likely diesel, Pharaoh (faraone) and remember
Sciocco

but why

Diesel, pharaoh and remember. I don't know how you can possibly get these wrong. Diesel is literally spelled out on every fuel pump, pharaoh is literally pronounced FARA-OH and not FARO-AH, and remember is first grade vocabulary.

And everyone says "it's me" instead of "It is I"
so yeah

I agree with op though

>irregardless
Shouldn't this mean regardful?

Diamond dozen
Doggy dog world
Weird pronunciation of the name of pretty much every non-Anglo country
Totally incapable of reading characters that do no appear in the standard English alphabet

is this real? never met americans irl, why do they do that?
remember is probably the worst, do they run out of breath using the full word?

"should of"

Might could.

Aluminum is actually the correct spelling and pronunciation

>could of
>should of
>would of
This pisses me off so much

Eh I don't know anyone that says rember, that's probably a southern thing

"like" in like every second sentence
Ending every sentence with "dude", my dude
Overuse of the word "fuck" but then they get fucking upset by words like cunt

Just American education things.

that kind of slang is true in every language i think, most teen conversations are full of that due to lack of vocabulary
teacher would often bully us because of that

I pronounce it "fa-row", though.

good post

Erm, with stress on the initial syllable, obviously.

I know what it means ruski, I'm talking about what it 'should' mean,

You chose to play a game with stupid rules. This simply does not happen if English pronounced most letters like they are written, like most written languages on Earth do.

How do you pronounce that word dare I say?

These make me the angriest. They make so little sense that you have to actively suppress asking yourself what you're even saying in order to use them.

Using literally to mean figuratively
If they're from New England, than they're literally incapable of pronouncing anything with the letter "r" properly

That's just Boston desu!

I always said couldn't though.

>Using literally to mean figuratively
excuse me?

BAAHSTEN?

Like "comftorble"

It sounds fucking retarded but it's so deeply ingrained now

>people complaining about literally
It's literally used figuratively.

I know people from Connecticut and Rhode Island who do it too
I've never met anyone from Vermont or New Hampshire because they're old people retirement homes

You're extremely rude here. GTFO of my country!

I don't need no lessons in English.

Is it normal for anglos to be too dumb to understand figure of speech?

he means "cumf-ter-bl" (/ˈkʌmft.ɚb.əl/)

Yeah that, I've never been good at writing out phonetics

of course it is real. it is posted on Sup Forums by a fucking kraut so it must be true

> ruski
Mohammed please

Literally is meant to be used to indicate you are NOT making a figurative statement when making a figure of speech, that something strange is actually happening i.e. pigs are LITERALLY flying right now. Using it to put emphasis on a figurative statement devalues the entire point of the word's existence.

No, the word has a social significance here that our 4channers are too autistic to notice. The word "literally" is used figuratively to acknowledge the hyperbolic nature of a statement.

> "I love him so much; he's a saint."
I could be talking about an actual saint.

> "I love him so much; he's literally a saint."
I'm talking about my crush desu.

krauts are too autistic to make up lies

Come on now, people only use the new way informally and stress the word super hard when they do. It's clear which sense is meant in any circumstance.

>muh gradma's retard

fuck off you fucking jew gold tooth guarding gnome piece of shit.

BEHL-uh-RUSS
THE Ukraine
Confusing Georgia the country with Georgia the state

>BEHL-uh-RUSS
What's wrong with this? I think that's how I pronounce it, but could you Vocaroo it?

bela rus

It's Bell-ah-ROOS

If I say, "I am literally seething with rage" at an obvious, weak bait, I am literally using irony that anyone should understand.

>A bunch of foreign retards who barely speak English (since they only type it) are so obsessed with us ITT

Yeah, I get it now. I thought RUSS meant ROOS.

shouldn't have such imitative flags then

you never heard of double stress in english you fucking idiot? you need to go back to belaROOS.

I never said I was incapable of understanding it in a non-literal context you mong, I said that Americans are infamous for overusing it in that manner

>literally being this mad and autistic

> let me tell you what your flag should look like
Islamic Sharia of Sweden when?

>Aluminum is actually the correct spelling and pronunciation

>The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) adopted aluminium as the standard international name for the element in 1990

'no'

brits dont pronounce Rs generally so they dont even pronounce "idear" like "idear" you mong

From Kentucky

dest = desk
risk = rist
pacific = specific
hunnerd = hundred
worsht = washed
britches = pants
gaum = mess
bum = bomb

Confirmation bias. You don't notice the nice Americans. And Americans with the money to travel to Switzerland are not typical Americans.

>fixin' to
>bless your heart

That's the thing. It may be a specific british accent. Are you from Pakistan? Ask a brit near you. They basically don't pronounce their R's then add them where they don't belong. It is weird.

EYE-talian always gets me.

>would of
>there/they're/their
>your/you're

it boggles my mind how monolinguals can be shit at their one and only language

skwörl

unironically had to self-correct this one
