Arg hearing needs some funds.

During a lesson about adjectives, my friend, an elementary school teacher, asked her class to describe their mothers. One boy described his mother's hair as auburn.

Impressed by his sophisticated word choice, my friend asked, "How do you know her hair color is auburn?" Her student replied, "Because that's what it says on the box."

Three-year-old sticks out her hand and says, “Look at the fly I killed, Mommy.” Since she was eating a juicy pickle at the time, Mother thrusts her contaminated hands under the faucet and washes them with antibacterial soap. After sitting her down to finish her pickle, Mother asks, with a touch of awe, “How did you kill that fly all by yourself?” Between bites, she says, “I hit it with my pickle.”

What are Australian adverts like - not seen any ?

@Rita I suppose the jokey thing to say would be that they are upside down, from Down Under..........

American Culture...is strange in itself.

If a person is born and raised in one state, they rival and make fun of their neighboring states....or any other states...and visa versa.
It’s like little groups of states have their own Cultures...dialects, food prepping, music, slang, sports teams, politics favoring, etc.
* The north east, The southern east, the northern, the southern, the north west, the southern west, the northern mid-west, the southern mid-west...Alaska, Hawaii...and the Territories.
* A person born and raised in one state can get “culture shocked”, traveling about all the different states, mingling with long standing people of that state.
* (The last several decades of “foreign invasion” has greatly impacted every state’s own culture.)

* Story telling is not about believability but rather “style” of “speaking”.

A foreigner Listening to American “soap operas”, “news stations”, “movies” etc. (pretty much all sound the same)... and a foreigner doesn’t really see it hear all the different states “range of American Cultures”.

@Taken Interesting point there about "style" of speaking rather than believability.............

When I was in Alaska, I talked to a lady in a store who was not happy with former Governor Sarah Palin. I do wonder if there was something going on there which wasn't simply linked to the McCain-Palin ticket..............

I do hear a few differences in some of the accents, but not many and the only kind of American accent I would associate with a certain state/ states is the Deep South accent. As for the culture , I totally get that there would be differences because we have the same and we are such a small country. Obviously there are difference between Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England, but within England we have different counties , different accents, different slang words and different attitudes ect. There is also a north/ south divide.
Humour is also different, British humour varies from American …………

The adverts as well…..why do Americans have to shout in your face to get you to buy things !! Lol

@Rita Same with local churches.

You can have local churches in North America which on paper can in theory hold exactly to their counterparts in England....but the whole discoursive approach taken to things can be vastly, vastly different...especially if it's an outside who is perceived to be shoving his oar into local affairs.......................

McCain, was not healthy enough to be seated, and Palin was not in tune enough with the lower 48 IMO.

Gets sickening, IMO, who and how “Party” candidates are selected by a handful, AS IF, whoop, whoop, here’s your choice, this person...period.
