You're right we Americans are odd. We are South Americans and North Americans and Stateside Americans. Odd lots have come Stateside from odd places and oddly enough have become Americans! They embrace us even though we have an odd way of speaking. The new Americans enrich our language even though they sometimes have odd references and speak with odd accents. I could move to London and become one of Her Majesty's subjects and even though I speak Englisht would I ever be considered English? I think not! Odd isn't it. WOW
