why do you make that assumption?  In english speaking countries it is still important to be able to communicate.  I'm sure it's that way in other countries with their own languages, too.

As different peoples developed different languages, the accents changed and diverged with the languages. So language is why we have different accents. Language determines our phonics, or the pronunciation of words, even when we speak other people's languages.

Can you clarify your question?\n\nThe etymology of English and England is from the word Angles, Angles being the tribe of west germanic peoples who invaded/settled/conquered the islands of the British Isles.  England is derived from the germanic way of expressing the place where Angles occupy: Land of the Angles or Angle Land.\n\nEnglish is the language that is spoken in England just like Deutsch is the language spoken in Deutschland (German/Germany).

For some it is because English is a second language. For others it is because our school systems have failed to teach people how to read  and spell properly.

Hi there, \n\nIf not English, there must atleast be a common language which both of you can understand so that you can communicate. And I don't think your English is that bad, considering from the way you type. You are much better than the 'English Speaking' people here. But yes, speaking English is definitely an advantage if you want to make friends with someone, because English is universally accepted and many people in this world are aquainted with English language. \n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

The best things you can do to better your English are actually to read or to watch TV.  It's all about exposure.

English English is the one I prefer.  It is by all means the proper way of speaking it since the language first developed in Britain.  Oh yeah, I love the accents as well.

English is a tricky language. Many words have silent letters so its important to listen to the pronunciation so that you say the word right.

I think because English people are sympathetic towards our American cousins and make that extra effort to not give in to frustration and correct their grammar/spelling at every other corner. Due to the fact that the language most Americans speak is also understood by most native English speakers then they justify it as being English.\nCalling it American would cause a political rift in Anglo-US relations and probably allow the spoken and written accuracy level of American to sink to even further lows than it has already. By keeping English as a role-model, they hope to at least retain some vestige of respect for the history and culture of their country.
