The Americans realised that if they simplified certain spellings of the english language then they could make it easier for their Presidents to read the teleprompter.

Good question. Why do Brits say eye-rate? I'm sure we don't say "eye-raq".
Report Platini September 8, 2013 10:11 PM BST
and why can't the English pronounce words like "drawing". All I hear is "drawRing"

What's with the extra R? How does that happen? Crazy

Brits now seem to pronounce the country Chile as cheelay, I've always said it as chilly.
Report TheBetterBettor September 9, 2013 10:56 AM BST
^^^^^^^ spanish e is pronouced "eh".


But you´re right Brits/Yanks should pronounce it as "chilly".  We dont go around saying England are playing "Deutschland" tomorrow.
