I highly suggest that the British and Canadians take all their extra vowels and send them to the various Slavic-language nations that so desperately need them.




Now this idea I like
The Netherlands should have a few to spare too, I always have to clean my glasses whenever I'm looking at Amsterdam Centraal train station to make sure they're not causing me to see double

Pissed off? No, chalk this up to "you are stupid and we like to make fun of you because of that fact and laugh about it".


We are using english to speak here, and surprise, it originated in...ENGLAND! *gasp!* I am fairly certain they thought of it first, so that pretty much makes them the authority. lol


That would be like telling a native american that he isnt speaking american right lol






LOL!


Allthough I am a semi-american in Europe, the schools here all teach British-english...but since I was "special" I was allowed to spell it "armor" in school

Armour was around long before America, and it's bastardization (with a Z) of English, was an itch in it's colonial mothers pants.

How can you take seriously a culture that recognises "fo shizzle my nizzle" as legitimate speech?

The only reason it's spelt armor in the US is because the first people to arrive there didn't bring a dictionary.

just real quick....can someone please point out ingame where it is spelled "Armour"? So if there is no where ingame or in AMERICAN DICTIONARY I guess he was somewhat right. Be it that no other country created the game and what not.However you may spell things....

LOL whoever let reflip piss them off it is funny cause he told me watch me piss off the armorsmith forums. So here we go. Get'em internet thugs, UNITE!


And if you don't take us serisously i mean just look to Iraq. I mean what it took 30 days to blow them to piss. Fo shizzle my nizzle. Maybe that is why we so cocky here.

/sigh, yet another 11 year old who's best method of entertaining themselves is to provoke a response?


Great job you're doing of representing your country mate, but I'd leave the Iraq comments out. Totally unnecessary and makes you look like a w4nker. That's a British word too :-)

To Set This Issue Correct:


There is Armor and Armour in the AMERICAN english language:


Whats the difference?


Armor:Modern defensive equipment such as armored military units otherwise known as ‘tanks’ and supporting vehicles.


and Armour is: Medieval armour elements such as defensive equipment of a knight

What would happen if the americans didn't speak English at all, and were decendants of the Welsh?


What would they do to our welsh word for armour.... arfogaeth
