Juice is what we call fruit-drinks that arent carbonated. We call pants with straps over the sholders trousers, but regular pants we call pants. Thus under pants makes sense.

I dont know how or why this is, but in the US, there arent U's in a lot of words that there are in england. For example, colour is color. Neighbour is neighbor, ect. Steriotypical lazyness? Haha.

Personaly i think its a good thing, The Uk for some reason dosnt seem to want to change and is still sticking to old spellinsg drived from french and the many other langaegs are one draws from. Ameircas, basicly fixed these random an illogal letters and made them in to simpler more stairt forwards words, which makes more sence.
britian has a bit of an obssesion with sticking to tradition, dispite how stupid many may be... judges and those working in the legal system etc still have tow ware stupid victoaran Wigs... now thats pointless imo.

[Addie.]

I can talk American. Sometimes I just do. I think American is totally an awesome language!

[HUGECOOL]

I don't think you'd need much help if trying to speak "American" when you've spoken all your life. xD

Maybe you're referring to the accents or word usage? ;p

[Jordan3]

Aren't juice and soda different things? I always thought juice was like squeezed fruits and soda was fizzy drink?

[Mentor]

one is correct in that assumption

[HUGECOOL]

Haha, well its kind of hard to convince a nation on that stuff. If we had to add the U to all the words, I would be so frustrated and keep forgeting. It doesnt really matter.

English in general is a very dumb language. One of my old teachers said it was made up by 3 drunks in a bar (joking obviously). Most languages say the adjectives after the noun, which sounds weird to us, but it makes more sense. Instead of 'The blue coat' it would be 'the coat blue' (roughly, not translated exact). Thats why its so hard to learn. There are countless words with silent Es but they make the word sound completely different. Like 'hat' is a word, but add an E at the end, a letter we dont even pronounce, it has a completely different sound.
