uandishi Article: American and British English

posted by ZekiYuro

If you've learnt British English and you're travelling in the States,or if you've learnt American English and you're travelling in Britain,you'll notice some differences.An obvious difference is the accent,but most travellers find that they don't have too many problems with this.There are some grammatical differences,but they shoudn't make it difficult to understand people,or to communicate.That leaves differences in vocabulary,which can cause misunderstandings.Sometimes the difference is only the spelling,for example,in British English 'center','colour',and 'travelled',and in American English 'centre','color',and 'traveled'.But sometimes the word is completely different in British and American English,and it's good idea to be prepared.

ShadowYJ Well duh, it may be english-but the grammar is different. I know both-but since i'm in australia, we have to use british english. But i say American english is easier for me-i learned british english later on.

Zero_Delta You got center and centre mixed up...

DramaQueen1020 In British English it's "Theatre" and in American it's "Theater"

darkling_menace ive got a question. If British people call fries 'chips' then what do they call chips?

ZekiYuro Hehe actually I don't know...Although I am learning British English-I just want to improve my stupid grammar and listening

Aqua_Rose darkling_menace, chips are what we have with our dinner, crisps are what we have in a packet in flavours such as cheese and onion, if that's what you meant.

The Best siku Of My Life (1 of Them)

I was at my uncle's house, waiting for my mom to come back. She was picking up my siblings from school. I was 4 yours old at the time. I was in my uncle's bedroom, as usual. And I was talking to him, as usual.

"Will, who's stuffed wanyama are on the bed?" I asked curiously. Of course that was a stupid question, but remember I was just a little girl. And I wasn't the brightest one eithier. My uncle spun around in his spinning chair and looked at me. "Mine. Why?" he had the nerve to ask. My uncle was the type of man that would give wewe the world if he could....

Rping and uandishi

posted by axemnas

Role playing au Rping as most of the community calls it. Almost everyone's done it one way au another whether they realize it au not. Remember those days when you'd pretend wewe were a movie character au a prince/princess au a pirate au whatever. wewe were role playing in a since. Now days when wewe hear the word role playing wewe probably think things like War Craft, nyota Craft, Nights and Dragons, Toontown, etc..
Something you've probably never figured however, is rping in relation to writing. Writing, that's all rping basically is. It's just uandishi a collaborative story from different points...

The Difficult Decision (Poem)

posted by Insight357

I hate you

But I just can’t seem to break you

Do I want wewe here?

Do I want wewe gone?

Everyone says your such a tease

But not to me

Are wewe real?

Are wewe fake?

Do I need to be

With this drama queen

wewe spout lies

No truth to be found

Why am I still

Trying to see the good in you?

Is it worth it?

Should I listen to them?

They tell me to go

Before I’m a victim

Of wewe mighty undoing

I won’t fall

I’ve made a promise

Can I keep it?

Will I leave?

Will I remain?

Promises

Sins

They all appear

The same

Lies

Sentences

Preach the

Difference

I’m listening to you

I can’t break you

I’m falling now

No one to catch me

Do I leave now

That I’ve fallen

Are wewe worth my time?

Am I worth this pain?

God, help me choose

For this is not my decision

Any longer

I’ve put my faith in my despair

Now onyesha me the answer

Tell me what to do

Do I stay

au do I leave you?

Save Me Ch. 1

"Alessandra, wewe have two dakika to get down here!" Dad shouted from downstairs. I quickly pulled on my ratty old converse, not bothering to tie them. I ran downstairs, probably just making it to the two dakika mark. Dad folded his arms, probably upset that I'd made it in time.

"You're going to be late," he said. "You'd better get your punda out of here." I grabbed my bag off the chair, and grabbed a Candy bar from the pantry. Just as I got out the door, he grabbed a fistful of my hair, yanking it back. I yelped as my head jerked backwards, and I fell back into the house.

Ring, ring. “Hello”? ”Hannah I need wewe to come to my lab today”! “Doc”? but I thought”
…” I know, I’ve been working on something and I need your help”. “OK nice to talk to wewe again…bye”. In excitement I jumped out of my chair and put my best clothes on. Wondering what Doc was up to? I haven’t seen him in over a year, now that it’s the summer I finally have something to do. I raced down to Doc’s lab. The door creaked as I opened then I knew I was at the right place! “Hello” I alisema softly, “anyone here”? “Ah here wewe are I haven’t seen wewe in awhile...

The Little Town With A Dark Secret

Of course, unlucky as she was, Lara Binks, reporter for the "Sunnydale News, got caught in a rainstorm.
And, since getting stuck in a rainstorm wasn't bad enough, it also happened when she was stuck on a rather revolting public bus, which had lint and dead bugs littering the stained carpet and torn chairs.
If that wasn't bad enough, she and the odd-looking passengers were travelling across a dirt road in the middle of nowhere.
Worse yet, Lara had to get a story into the office in three days, and there was no longer any way this was possible, since the bus driver had announced they were stopping...

I woke up. The director came in and yelled at me to get out of bed. I sighed. I knew, this was, another siku in showbiz. Showbiz was, at first, a very interesting and exciting activity to take on. It was much zaidi serious than I thought it would be, and a lot less fun. I was Syria, the main protagonist in the story. My real name is Stace, for those of wewe who don't know. I could be a trouble-maker in the play, but I couldn't be rambunctious and cause trouble for the crew.
People confused me most of the time. Especially adults. I could be trouble-making in the play, but I couldn't be rambunctious...
