Do Brits get bothered that the only real reason their language is relevant worldwide is because of America?

It's English (United States)

i can't for the life of me figure out what you are trying to say here
dissapointing post
>British """"""""""English"""""""""""
Ah yes, just take shittons of French words, and when Americans use pure English words for them, call em stupid
>>72483838
Nobody has a fucking clue what you're trying to convey.
>>72481577
English is relevant in USA, Australia, Canada, NZ, India, most African countries and Europe because of the UK
It's relevant in Japan (barely spoken), south korea (spoken a little) and the Philippines because of america
take americas dick out of your mouth

>because of the UK
Ayy lmao. If it weren't for America, English would be a dead language.
>>72483882
American spelling is ironically inconsistent, considering they were attempting to improve it.
Like spelling the word 'defense' with an 's' and 'fence' with a 'c' or spelling 'fier' like a retard who doesn't understand that 'ire' is supposed to make that sound, but spelling it the British English way in 'backfire'.

Who the fuck spells it 'fier'?

Americans
we have this thread every week
no it doesn't bother me that English is relevant. the British empire started its spread to every corner of the globe and yanks have maintained its relevance and yea today it's largely because of them. Either way it's the global language
and no it doesn't bother me if they drop a few u's here and there of use z instead of s
>>72484243
I've literally never seen that once in my life and I don't believe you.
>>72482791
This. It's justified to be a little bothered that a shittier version of yourself stole your language and made it worse.
>>72481577
Yes, so much so I cry myself to sleep every night thinking about it.
>>72483838
Seeing Anglophones discussing which one has the crappiest spelling is hilarious. Go on.

I think >>72484259 might have changed my mind now. And I was probably just misinformed on the 'fier' thing, sorry.

The only reason America exists is because of us

It never used to, but I'm more conscious of it. If someone types in American 'English' on 4chan I usually just stop reading their post there and then.
