give me british examples
not to sure about the american ones

I'm not going through this whole list in OP, can't be bothered

I support Quebec and wanna see French as the one and the only one language of Canada, but canadian English is the best.

Russian (Ukraine)

do you hear any differences? Or only we can get it?

>>74211471
well.. how did "Bob's your uncle" came to be?
aaand.. ah yeah, always wanted to ask: "in for a pound, in for a penny"

>>74212261
Is the russian the main language in ukraine,dude?

>>74212318
Ukrainian's Russia sounds different than Russian in Russia

This is the UKRAINIAN language:

>>74212375
i won't lie to you m9: they all sound "prrrzzztjjrrzzptttprrrrrzzzttt" to me

>>74212459
lol
I can get a few words from Spanish
but French is easier

>>74212375
Is that similar like USA-UK,SPAIN-LAT?

>>74212678
Not so, because the countries are closer to each other, it's more like american-canadian or irish-british

>>74210743
I've only heard a few of these:
bobs yer uncle
at the end of one's tether
chat up
drunk as a fish (not a lord)
if the cap fits
in donkeys years
pull your socks up
save ones bacon

the rest are completely alien to me. and i seldom hear most of the ones i've listed.

>>74212265
bob's your uncle means; everything is well
the origin of this is uncertain

in for a pound in for a penny means; finishing what you've started

>>74212678
Russian and Ukrainian are like Spanish and Portuguese

>>74210743
half of those aren't even used

>>74212585

>>74211253
use several in quick succession and they start frothing at the mouth
dumb wogs

>>74211269
i don't get it

also you can't generalise europeans like that

>>74212754
bad comparison
romance languages have different words but same grammar structure,
but slavic languages have same words with different grammar structure

>>74212585
i won't lie to you m9: french sounds "djeu lu poupon le chon chon" to me as well

>>74212859
just a stupid meme. the actor is the same: Stuart Little's Dad

>>74211269
>brits are better at being americans than americans
sad

>>74210743
Not even half of those UK ones are even used.

>>74212885
not as different as you think

but in Russian and Polish same words can have a really different sense

in Polish uroda = beautiful, in Russian urodstvo = uglyness

yep that too

>>74213072
serbian, croatian, slovenian - south slav, slovakian - west slav, ukrainian - east slav

>>74213185
yeah, i was told so
in romance languages, it'd be:
spanish = el perro acaba de morir
portuguese = o cão acabou de morrer
french = le chien vient de mourir
italian ehr.... google translate says: il cane appena é morto
they all follow the same structure to the point that you can see the words as sameish

>>74212261
i can tell that they are a bit different, but if you didnt tell me to look for it i'd think theyre the same
one probably needs to speak russian to be able to tell

can you hear the differences in german?
standard high german (with some anglicisms)

yes, the old man has a swabian dialect (not too sure, could be some other southwestern dialect) and the commentary is not from a native speaker
