"Carolina /Canada. All the same, dear chap"

Oh, come, Ian. Can't have that sort of lamentable lumping-together, you know. Great diffs, as ass/arse shows, in linguistic usage, with much more of the English & French influence farther north. Why, by the merest coincidence, a clue [which I got as it went by!] in this week's 'Poirot' {ITV Sunday 8 pm} enabled the egregious Hercule to identify the villainess's claim to be a Yooser & identify her as being actually Canadian, when she described something complete as being 'from A to zed', when a true American would have said 'A to zee'.

Zo there!
