Different type and use of English language

There   are   a number of   varieties   of   English   around   the   world   .  some of them are  American  English ,  British   English  ,  Australian  English  ,  Canadian  English   and   South  African   English  . 

In each case above, English is   spoken   as the   primary   language.  But  ,  regional   influence  have   resulted   in   variations  in   accent   and   natural   expression ,   and   also  to   some   amount ,  in   the  vocabulary  used .  The main two types of English   that are most   well-known    and   most    commonly    used   are   British   English   and   American   English.

In   several countries, English is   the official language    still    not   each person   in   those   countries speaks the   language.   This is   because the British   ruled   over   these   countries   during 18, 19 and first   half of   the   twentieth   century.   Progressively   most   of   these   countries   unchained   themselves.   A group of   about fifty    of   these   countries   is well-known   as   the commonwealth    countries   ,    and   English   is    primary   language   or the   official    language   and it is   taught   in   schools.

The   English   taught   in   these   countries   particularly   in   Australia   ,   Hong Kong, India, South   Africa   and   Singapore    is British English.

In   20th   century   ,   America   steps forward    rapidly   - television, film computer and internet   take   American    language   to   all around    the    world. As   someone   learns   British   English   in   schools,   vocabulary   in   American   English   can   cause   uncertainty.

Today The British   English is first speaking language and   the   second   , American English.   These days’   learners    tend    to    get    puzzled    because    they   listen    and   read   unlike    pronunciation   ,    spellings   or   usage    of   the   same   word.

  Let’s gain knowledge of   the   corresponding   of   some   British   English   words   in American English.
