Who is right and who is wrong? I wonder who was first with this English language? Coincidently we are having a similar discussion on a British tractor forum today...It was started by a Dutchman complaining about how the English language is butting in on Dutch TV. Someone pointed out that our English language is also being changed by others coming into the country and the influence of TV etc. Another poster pointed out that the same happened in America with all the immigrants (legal or not!) from different countries taking 'your' language off on a different angle. No one noticed this difference until WW2 when we were all forced together again. Nowadays TV and this internet really shows up the differences. However we are mostly countryfolk and we will manage to communicate the way we manage to do everything else. Sam
