Thread Name: BS: American English usages taking over Brit
Subject: RE: BS: American English usages taking over Brit
This may sound strange, but until this discussion here in this thread, I didn't think the term "British" had any current validity. For some reason, I had gotten the impression that the correct term was UK and that "Britain" was obsolete. I didn't realize they were both current, and that they each referred to something different.
