Let me apologize

I don't see anything you need to apologize for.
Perhaps the Yanks are responsible for *******ising the English language
and
carnt not speak it like what we do but I will forgive you:-)


Have you read Bill Bryson's "Made in America" with regard to that? It's
rather interesting.

Mother Tongue
Russian has no words for "efficiency", "engagement ring", or "have fun".


Er, from USA to Russia and use of English? I thought you were upbraiding
Americans for their use of English and unfairly, IMO. ;-)

I was trying to imply yes I have read Bill Bryson's works by referring to
a"funny" from one of his other works-Mother Tongue (I think).
Upbraiding --what a lovely word . Our American cousins would say "Chew out"
:-)
