At last! I have wanted to see a piece on the suejbct of something we can say, Linguistic Hypocrisy. They tell us here (In USA) that the Americans have brought the level of English language at the level that it has not reached since the last 100 years.Now, the self-assigning leader of the free world and officially known as the greatest country in the history of the Universe, ever, honestly- has developed some of the worst linguistic empire in the world. I am not underestimating the American language or something, just saying that in the modern multilingual and global village, there should be no place for linguistic chauvinism. It can be British or American English, it is English and all are same.

I believe the very term British and American English are monmiser. This division has probably come out of the political division and in order to prove their separate identity, the nations divided the language. Since the very time when English spread in the world and dominated the entire globe, most of the nations around the world has accepted English language in one way or another, and has created their own version of language and called it their own.This fact probably has led to the decline of the quality of language.Thank you.
