Ok so im from Canada and have moved to the UK for with my Parents for like the next 5 years or so depending on my dads job.
I have quite a strong Canadian accent and i always talk to people like i do when im in Canada. This means that to people who are older than me i call them Sir or Ma'am when asked a question. Its hard to explain when i use this but Any way i was at the park playing football with my mates and my dad rang me and asked me if i would be back for dinner and i just said "yes sir" and that was it then when i came off the phone these girls who im not even friends with were like "weird American go get a country and stay there!" and i was like really taken a back by this because i had not even spoken to these girls but ne way like some of the guys there were laughing with them at me as well and i know sticks and stone and stuff but this did like upset me not like crying but ...do people really hate it or find it weird if i say "yes sir" just out of respect???
Ps. please dont post the whole aboot thing i get it all the time.
