Brits now more relaxed about cheating wives
 
According to a survey carried out by a University in Essex, Brits are now more chilled out about extra marital affair compared with 10 years ago. The same survey was carried out back them and over 70% of the respondent thing extra marital affair is a bad thing, fast forward to a follow up released yesterday and 50% things its a bad thing. I wonder if sites like Ashley Madison, Married Dating Site and other have a role in changing attitudes to cheating on your partner.

Shagging is what they call it yeah?

Why do Brits always turn their statements into a question by ending the sentence with stuff like "yeah" and "innit"? I don't get that.

I know what you mean, its common with a certain sector of the population mainly people from London and parts of Essex.

Other regions have their own annoying stuff as well for example in the North, the are fond of calling you "Love" If you as or the price of an apple sell (if she is a woman) would probably say something like £1 a killo love.

That I can understand. Every diner waitress and barmaid from New York to LA will have endearing names for customers like "hun" or "sweety", it's just some of the other British mannerisms and figures of speech I don't get. Your comedy I don't get either; it's all dry and insinuating; it's hard to describe. There's just a different set of cues, moods and tones that don't translate well. American and British English are very different from one another.
