British English and American English are really about the same, aren't they?
I don't think so. It seems that some of the spellings are different.
You're right, Nina. Words like 'theater' and 'center' end in 'r-e' in England instead of in' e-r' like we spell them. Can you think of any more exampies?
The word 'color'?
Good. Actually, many words which end in 'o-r' in American English are spelled 'o-u-r' in British English.
OK. There are some differences in pronunciation and meaning.
Anyway, we both agree that British English and American English are different. Right?
Sure. But not so different that it prevents us from understanding each other.
