You're very right there.
Even English and American is not the same.
In America you write "color", in English "colour".
An American says "Me too", an Englishman would say "So am I",
ore "So do I". The history of language is very interesting.
My native language is "Fries", not Dutch, and maybe there are
only half a million people speaking "Fries".
But building a sentence in Fries and English is the same and
differs from Dutch.


English: Spot on, American: Right on

"English is a language hard to understand, but easy to
misunderstand" - Unknown or George Bernard Shaw

"England and America are two countries divided by a common
language" - George Bernard Shaw
