Thread Name: What is it with the English?
Subject: RE: What is it with the English?
Semantically the concept of "Pure" for almost any nationality is almost impossible and the more diverse the population, the less the possibility that anything can be "pure." I would however think that one could say that regardless of roots, certain genres eventually are so associated with one country or region as to be a class of their own and thus associated with a particular country or region....and in that sense they are pure. I think a better term is needed, what I have no idea though.
