When I was sixteen years old, I made my first visit to the Un ited States. It wasn't the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children, I learned French at school.

A student is learning to speak British English. He wonders(想知道): Can I communicate with Americans? Can they understand m e? Learners of English often ask: What are the differences betwe en British and American English? How important are these differ ences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British and A merican English. There are a few differences in grammar. For exa
